Postgraduate Psychiatry - Clinical and Scientific Foundations.

This book is the ideal companion for all membership candidates for the MRCPsych and students on masters degrees in psychiatry. It is designed to be used throughout the training years as a one-stop course text, full of information which closely follows the syllabus for the exam. The material in this second edition has been substantially updated to reflect new developments in the field. It bridges the gap between the resource material provided by MCQ books and the much larger, academic reference books. New developments covered include greater emphasis on psychotherapy; the effect of initiatives in service delivery and recent changes in legislation; suicide and self harm - now a health service priority..
