Reviews
Review Dr. Levenson has done it again! He has presented consultation-liaison psychiatrists who care for complex medically and surgically ill patients with a comprehensive, reliable, go-to resource updated with DSM-5 diagnoses, current evidence-based information, and valuable clinical pearls. Written by an international group of experts, Dr. Levensons textbook includes a vast array of topics organized by common clinical consultation questions and by medical specialties. New and seasoned practitioners alike will find this latest revised volume to be clear, practical, and indispensable. –Maryland Pao, M.D., Pediatric and Adult Consultation Liaison Psychiatrist, Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, Georgetown University School of Medicine, Washington, D.C.This is a comprehensive, practical, and well-written textbook covering a wide range of topics important to practitioners of consultation-liaison psychiatry. The authors of each chapter are experts in the field and take a thoughtful and practical approach to each topic by outlining evidence and providing clear clinical guidance. There is no question that this is a hallmark text in the field and will be frequently consulted by trainees and experienced clinician alike. –Jeff C. Huffman, M.D., Associate Chief of Psychiatry for Clinical Services, Massachusetts General Hospital, Director, MGH Cardiac Psychiatry, Associate Professor of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School From the Inside Flap With extensively revised chapters and 30 new authors, this third edition of The American Psychiatric Association Publishing Textbook of Psychosomatic Medicine and Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry has been thoroughly updated to reflect the rapidly expanding evidence base in the field. The emphasis on a diversity of perspectives remains as strong as ever: Chapter authors represent a range of backgrounds and disciplines, and of opinions and viewpoints, and 24 of the 88 contributors are from countries other than the United States.As the most comprehensive reference of its type available, this textbook addresses general principles in evaluation and management (including legal and ethical issues); psychiatric symptoms and disorders in the medically ill; psychological and social aspects of diseases affecting the various organ systems; and psychiatric interventions for this patient population.Encyclopedic in its scope and accessible in its presentation, The American Psychiatric Association Publishing Textbook of Psychosomatic Medicine and Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry is an essential resource for psychiatry residents, psychosomatic medicine fellows, and attending psychiatrists who need to stay up to date with the rapidly expanding evidence base in the field.
