Recenzje

This is an excellent, highly practical book for both medical students and for doctors at the early stages of their postgraduate training in psychiatry. It provides a highly readable overview of the key clinical areas, with use of mnemonics and valuable practical tips such as how to set up the clinical interview and sample phrasing of difficult to ask questions. This is combined with relevant reference to the underlying phenomenology and the evidence base.
