Produktinformationen zu „Comprehensive Textbook of AIDS Psychiatry “
Among the vast and rapidly growing field of AIDS research, there is an ample body of evidence supporting the fact that psychiatric treatment can decrease transmission, diminish suffering, improve adherence, and decrease morbidity and mortality. There is probably no other illness in which the connections between mind and body are so inextricably woven. But until now there has been no comprehensive textbook of AIDS psychiatry to guide clinicians towards providing much needed care. Using a biopsychosocial approach, this 41-chapter volume offers insight into the interface between the psychiatric, medical, and social dimensions of HIV and AIDS. Drawing on clinical experience as well as evidence-based medicine, this textbook provides a basic understanding of the comorbid medical and psychiatric conditions that cause distress, morbidity, and mortality in persons with HIV and AIDS, while at the same time examining the epidemic from the viewpoints of public health and public policy experts.

Rezension zu „Comprehensive Textbook of AIDS Psychiatry “
"This is truly a comprehensive overview of all of the major topics that are important in the psychiatric treatment of HIV/AIDS patients."--Doody's"This textbook is unusually strong, both in the writing and the organization of the material...The writing is at a very scholarly level, with plenty of clinical examples which sharpen the insights offered in the text...It receives my unreserved endorsement. Having completed by studying for the Psychosomatic Medicine Boards several years ago, I am sorry that this textbook was not yet available to me as a resource, and I will be looking for the later editions as they emerge."--Sherry Kalz-Barnot in the Journal of the American Academy of Psychoanalysis and Dynamic Psychiatry
"The publication of Comprehensive Textbook of Psychiatry by Cohen and Gorman denotes the coming of age of AIDS psychiatry as a discipline."--JAMA
"The Comprehensive Textbook of AIDS Psychiatry will serve as a standard reference for psychiatrists and other mental health professionals providing care for HIV-positive individuals."--Joyce Seiko Kobayashi, MD, in the American Journal of Psychiatry
