Prescribing Mental Health Medication Bewertungen

'I am very impressed both with the form and content of this book. A great deal of the discussion is drawn from clinical practice and the concerns that patients have about medication. It has the potential to become a much referenced text.' - Peter Nolan, Professor of Mental Health Nursing, University of Staffordshire 'Although there are countless textbooks and guidelines about psychopharmacology this book, to my knowledge, is a unique guide about how to prescribe and manage psychiatric medication. It is engaging, easy to read, intelligent and incredibly useful to mental health practitioners.' - Richard Gray, Research Fellow, Institute of Psychiatry
