Review '... a great strength of the volume, the book does not cover only adult and old age psychiatry but includes excellent contributions on child and adolescent mental health, sexual problems and the psychiatry of intellectual disability. ... the reference remain a very useful spur to postgraduate study and the calibre of the authors as clinicians, researchers and policy-makers makes every chapter fresh, relevant and exciting. The editors deserve great congratulation for bringing this volume together and I for one am very grateful for its publication: I'm sure it will serve me as well for the future as the last edition did for the past 11 years.' Journal of Public Mental Health '... useful and interesting ... the editors are successful in their core mission of assisting readers in identifying the key differences between classification systems, as well as educating them about the variations in treatment of certain psychiatric disorders. Overall, this book might be most valuable for those who have frequent contact with colleagues overseas or those who are planning to spend time ... in Europe or any other location that uses the ICD-10.' Doody's Notes '... Essential Psychiatry, fourth edition is an excellent reference book with up-to-date evidence-based knowledge which will be an invaluable resource for psychiatrists and mental health professionals alike. ... for a comprehensive understanding of fundamental issues in psychiatry this textbook is a must-have.' Psychological Medicine "Published for clinicians throughout the world, this book addresses various aspects of psychiatry, from its history to its differing global nomenclature and treatment approaches....Divided into five main sections, this book attempts to bridge a gap between clinicians who practice in Europe (and thus, use the ICD-10 as their classification system) and those in North America (who use the DSM-IV-TR) by offering explanations of the subtle differences in systems, as well as describing slight differences in treatment approaches. There are numerous black-and-white charts, diagrams, tables, and figures throughout the work, and each chapter concludes with an extensive list of references, many of which are from publications outside of the United States....The editors are successful in their core mission." --Doody's Review Service "An excellent reference book with up-to-date evidence-based knowledge which will be an invaluable resource for psychiatrists and mental health professionals alike." --Psychological Medicine Review Quote "Published for clinicians throughout the world, this book addresses various aspects of psychiatry, from its history to its differing global nomenclature and treatment approaches....Divided into five main sections, this book attempts to bridge a gap between clinicians who practice in Europe (and thus, use the ICD-10 as their classification system) and those in North America (who use the DSM-IV-TR) by offering explanations of the subtle differences in systems, as well as describing slight differences in treatment approaches.
