This is the first comprehensive overview of the clinical features, biology, course and long-term outcome of brief and acute psychoses.

Acute psychotic disorders with a short duration and a generally good prognosis have long intrigued psychiatrists.

This book is the first comprehensive overview of their clinical features, biology, course and long-term effects. The authors also address their nosological status and impact on our understanding of the continuum of psychotic and affective disorders.
