Electroconvulsive Therapy Summary

Electroconvulsive Therapy by Richard Abrams (Professor of Psychiatry, Professor of Psychiatry, FUHSThe Chicago Medical School)

This is a thoroughly revised and updated edition of the definitive text on electroconvulsive therapy.

New material for this edition includes coverage of the recently published 3rd edition of the American Psychiatric Association's Task Force Report on ECT (which lays out the boundaries within which ECT should be administered in the United States) and a new chapter on transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), a treatment method that is analogous to ECT.
