Reviews

This is a valuable little book on an important disorder for clinicians to recognize and treat. It is an excellent review of the topic and is a welcome addition to the psychiatric literature. Doody's I would recommend this book to any clinician who might be encountering older adults in their practice, from the general practitioner, to the specialist, and especially those who are time-poor, as all this knowledge is impressively compressed within 150 pages!
