This well-known text is the definitive reference work on the psychiatric care of patients with medical, neurological and surgical disorders. Physical illness often places a heavy mental burden on patients and this book is the most authoritative guide to dealing with their emotional, cognitive and behavioral problems. For internists and psychiatrists, especially those in consultation/liaison psychiatry, it is an invaluable resource. The second edition has been greatly expanded and includes 28 new chapters on such topics as parenteral administration of psychotropic drugs; psychiatric aspects of cosmetic and reconstructive surgery; cognitive therapy in medical-psychiatric patients; palliative care; religious issues in medical-psychiatric practice; psychiatric assessment of chronic fatigue syndromes; reproductive neuroendocrinology; seizures and epilepsy; psychiatric assessment of the medically ill child; pain management in children; frontal lobe syndromes and traumatic brain injury; disorders of eating in medical-psychiatric patients; headache syndromes; spinal cord injury; psychopharmacology in pregnancy and lactation; chemical sensitivity syndromes; infectious diseases; medical genetics; anesthesiology; competency evaluations; and grief reactions in children.

Editorial Reviews

Review

From reviews of the First Edition: "This major textbook will be a standard reference in medical psychiatry."--The New England Journal of Medicine"This superb book fully achieves the authors' stated goals of further developing a comprehensive reference text on the diagnosis and treatment of psychiatric disorders in medically ill patients, consolidating the literature relevant to this area and presenting this information in readily accessible and useful form."--Psychiatric Times"I strongly urge you to purchase this wonderful text. Drs. Alan Stoudemire and Barry Fogel have produced a first-rate book that identifies the boundaries and future directions for medical psychiatry."--American Journal of Psychiatry"A real strength of the textbook is the provision of enough medical and neurological background to give the psychiatrist an adequate understanding of his patient's disease and an awareness of how the psychiatrist might usefully intervene. The writers of the chapters appear very knowledgeable about their respective fields, yet render complex issues clearly."--The American Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry"It is to the editors' credit that at the clinical level they demonstrate their pragmatic and healthy appreciation of many forms of psychiatric treatment--behavioral therapy, family work, and psychodynamic formulation and treatment, as well as somatic therapy...It is innovative, particularly in its specific disease section, and it contains a wealth of information that the psychiatrist who works in a medical setting needs on an everyday basis."--General Hospital Psychiatry
