Reviews

I would recommend this book to all mental health nurse prescribers, nurses and students. The book layout is brilliant with a concise summary and questions at the end of each chapter, which makes the reader reflect on the content read in each chapter. A very well written and a very useful resource for practitioners and learners. Dr Geeta Patel (GP with specialist interest in psychiatry)
