Product description

Review

Reviews of previous editions: '… essential reading … I would thoroughly recommend this book to anyone who works with psychotropic drugs - or who has the task of teaching others about them!' American Journal of Psychiatry

'The clinically orientated chapters do an impressive job of bringing together the neuropathological basis and psychopharmacological approaches to psychiatric conditions. I would highly recommend this as a concise, entertaining and easily accessible source of information.' Addiction Biology

'If there is one basic psychopharmacology text for a practitioner or teacher of psychiatric medicine to own, this is it … Cleverly illustrated with simple cartoons, this book presents complex information in an easily accessible manner … [Stahl's] Essential Psychopharmacology is a first rate book.' The Lancet

'… an excellent basic textbook covering the key areas of psychopharmacology. Its concise and structured approach made reading enjoyable … I would wholeheartedly recommend this book to all psychiatric trainees.' Journal of Intellectual Disability Research

'As an MRC psychiatry student I have benefited enormously from studying this book. Stahl has allowed me to see the light in what I previously found to be a very complex subject … it has made a fascinating and fulfilling read.' International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry

'[Stahl's] Essential Psychopharmacology offers a wide range of readers an engaging and comprehensive view of psychopharmacology. It is highly recommended to both novice and experienced researchers, who stand to gain a new or renewed appreciation for the complexity and beauty of how the nervous system mediates the behavioural effects of drugs.' Contemporary Psychology

'The book is an excellent source of information for the art of prescribing psychotropic medications. This book belongs in every clinician's library and serves as a model of clarity for others.' Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica

'Medical students, psychiatry residents and fellows and experienced clinicians will find the style and content refreshing … I recommend this text as an extremely useful reference work as we enter the next decade of discovery in brain neurosciences and its role in clinical psychiatry.' Psychological Medicine

'We highly recommend this book both to general practitioners who may need information on general mechanisms of psychotropic drugs and to students that would like to learn more about basic psychopharmacology and its practical applications.' Clinical Neuropsychiatry

    Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

    Stephen M. Stahl is Adjunct Professor of Psychiatry at the University of California, San Diego. He has conducted numerous research projects awarded by the National Institute of Mental Health, the Veterans Administration, and the pharmaceutical industry. Author of more than 300 articles and chapters, Dr. Stahl is an internationally recognized clinician, researcher, and teacher in psychiatry with subspecialty expertise in psychopharmacology.

    BUT there's an unexpected twist to this respected physician's CV: he has now penned a riveting novel the likes of which even John Grisham might envy: SHELL SHOCK. The plot revolves around post-traumatic stress disorder, a condition of great importance to Dr. Stahl, especially as thousands of veterans return to America with PTSD.

    Steve hopes his debut thriller will shine a spotlight into the dark hole of public misconceptions about PTSD, as well as keeping readers glued to the pages of his latest book, which many believe is destined to become a major motion picture.

    From the shell shock of men suffering the unspeakable horrors in the trenches of World War I to the PTSD of returning troops today, comes a mystery of crimes even more heinous than war itself. SHELL SHOCK investigates the effects of war's destruction on both the battlefield and on the minds of soldiers. Famous Stanford psychiatrist, Dr. Gus Conrad, uncovers a covert military faction, The Patrons of Perseus, formed during the First World War to celebrate heroism and eliminate cowardice. The group is so far beyond the pale of humanity that Conrad must stop its evil agenda. Through flashbacks to events of 100 years ago, to the examination of soldiers returning today from Iraq and Afghanistan with post-traumatic stress disorder, Conrad finds himself in a race to save his own life while trying to change the practice of psychiatry in the military.
