Description
Now in its fourth edition, “Basic Notes in Psychopharmacology” is a concise summary, in the form of notes, which gives the reader a quick and easy-to-use overview of the subject. This greatly expanded volume now covers all the major classes of drugs, and for each individual drug the principle mode of action, indications and adverse effects are provided. In addition, it now includes 35 peer-reviewed clinical vignettes, focussing on psychopharmacological treatments which play a major part in management. As a short and practical guide, it will be invaluable for junior hospital psychiatrists, general practitioners and medical students. Others, including psychiatric nurses, psychiatric social workers, psychiatric occupational therapists and clinical psychologists, will also find it extremely useful.

professionals who work with youth experiencing bullying.” – Dawna Cricket
Meehan, Coordinator of School Mental Health Projects, Center for
School-Based Mental Health Programs, Miami University “No longer are

and long term effects of bullying while offering a new assessment tool, the
Bullying Lethality Identification System, to enhance the possibilities of
teens getting the mental health resources needed.” – Donna Dickman,

but he is also a compassionate professional that uses this knowledge to
help children, parents, and educators prevent and identify this problem. I
highly recommend this book to mental health professionals.” – Joy Wilson,
EdD, LPCC-S, New Journey Counseling LLC, Cincinnati, Ohio “This is a must
read for anyone working in the mental health field with those targeted by
bullying. Losey uses theory, research, and other people’s personal
experiences related to bullying to draw you full circle into why
individuals experience suicidal ideation or may threaten violence. I highly
recommend this book to fellow mental health professionals and trainers in
bullying prevention and intervention.” – Paulie Velotta, EdS, LSW,
Crossroads Consultation, Training and Education Specialist; Nationally

speaker, Dr Losey is truly a pioneer in this critical field of bullying and
it’s severe consequences to our children. His new assessment tool, The
Bullying Lethality Identification System, provides understanding of the
issues and strong advice for preventing and correcting the problem. A MUST

also a great resource for parents and families who are affected by
bullying; giving them tools to identify and understand the problem, with
the knowledge of resources available for their children.” – Charles D.
