Summary

This definitive work written by two leading authorities is the most comprehensive and up-to-date clinical reference on schizophrenia. Drawing on their own extensive experience and the empirical evidence in the literature, the authors address the integration of psychopharmacologic and psychosocial approaches to treatment, preventive intervention, and much more. The book also expandes on the American Psychiatric Association Guidelines, presents an operational approach for practical use, and explains in detail which strategies work and why. Algorithms and clinical case examples appear throughout the book. The book features case studies, psychopharmacologic and psychosocial approaches to treatment and also stresses new research on delayed onset and relapse prevention
