Description
The Oxford Handbook of Psychiatry provides comprehensive guidance on all aspects of psychiatry, from diagnosis and clinical interviews to management by subspecialty. Fully updated to reflect changes in legislation and classification of psychiatric disorders, this fourth edition includes coverage of the anticipated ICD-11 coding. The Handbook's practical layout helps with clinical diagnosis, while suggested differential diagnosis provides reassurance for health professionals dealing with psychiatric issues. A new chapter on Neuropsychiatry and a revised section on gender dysphoria reflect recent developments in understanding and research. The book is indexed alphabetically by ICD-10 and DSM-5 codes, as well as a list of acute presentations for quick access in emergency situations. With its focus on practical guidance and commentary from the authors' experiences in psychiatry, this Handbook is an invaluable resource for trainee and practising psychiatrists.
