I've had the previous edition of this book on my shelf for years, and it's been a fantastic resource for both myself and my therapy clients. The book is clear and concise, with practical examples and handy bullet points that make it easy to digest. Overall, it's a super useful handbook for anyone in the mental health field.
Perfect manual for what I need, because in my role as a psychologist/psychotherapist I do not prescribe medication, but deal with people who take a lot of it. Clear, with short, to-the-point clinical examples and a series of bulleted lists that make my day.
Manuale perfetto per quello che serve a me, che nel mio ruolo di psicologa/psicoterapeuta non somministro farmaci, ma che ho a che fare con persone che ne prendono tanti. Chiaro, con degli esempi clinici brevi e puntuali ed una serie di elenchi puntati che fanno la mia felicitá.
I received from the publisher a digital advanced review copy in exchange for a honest review.
Thank you to Netgallery and New Harbinger publications for an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review.
This book covers the basics of clinical psychopharmacology in an approachable manner. As a practicing clinician, I find the information in this book to be invaluable. I particularly appreciated the section on medication non-adherence, as this is a topic that is frequently discussed in MDTs and with individual clients. I found that to be particularly useful. I also really appreciated the neurobiology review which made complex concepts easy to understand. Overall, I find there to be a lot of clinical utility in this handbook for therapists/clinicians.
I will definitely be purchasing a copy of this edition to keep at my office once this is published so that I can reference it. This book would be a good edition to have on hand for any practicing clinician.
