About this product
Product Information
For medical students taking their first course in psychiatry or entering their first clinical clerkship, their early encounters with psychiatric patients and their need to master vast amounts of new information on complicated illnesses can be a bewildering, grueling, and intimidating experience. Fortunately, these newcomers have a reliable and trusted source that makes psychiatry more accessible to them. Widely used in medical schools and allied mental health curricula, the third edition of Psychiatry for Medical Students is the standard against which all psychiatric texts for beginning medical students are measured. This popular book gives medical students, primary care physicians, nurses, social workers, and psychologists a jargon-free introduction to the basics, including topics such as schizophrenia, electroconvulsive therapy, transference, and tranquilizers. The text also helps the reader develop the basic skills needed to carry out a diagnostic evaluation and provides systematic coverage of common psychiatric disorders, groups of patients, specialized psychiatric fields, special problems encountered among patients with a broad range of psychiatric conditions, and psychotherapies and somatic therapies. This updated edition incorporates the changes in DSM-IV and contains discussions of recent developments throughout the field. Filled with new references and the latest research, this book can be used as a quick reference during clinical work and a starting point for further reading.

"Teaching medical students basic diagnostic and management principles in psychiatry is fundamental to the development of the fully trained physician. In the third edition of Psychiatry for Medical Students, Dr. Waldinger continues to provide a comprehensive overview of major syndromes, patient populations, and relevant treatment modalities. This is an outstanding book for medical students and an invaluable tool for medical educators."- Carol A. Bernstein, M.D., Associate Professor of Clinical Psychiatry, Director, Residency Training in Psychiatry, New York University Medical Center, New York, New York, "[Dr. Waldinger] has written a lean and muscular book that nicely summarizes just about everything most students will want to learn while taking their psychopathology course and psychiatry clerkship. The book is beautifully organized and written, and I could not find one wasted word."- American Journal of Psychiatry, "It is a very comprehensive in scope, and in general the content is eclectic in orientation and would be considered by most psychiatrists as reflecting an acceptable main stream approach to the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of psychiatric illness."- Australian and New Zealand Journal of Psychiatry

Amazing price for this book which was described as used, but like new, and indeed arrived in perfect condition. Item description was spot on and in fact this book could have been sold as new. Fast shipping as well. This was a rather heavy art book and the seller did a great job of packing it securely so that it arrived in perfect condition and free of damage. Well done and I would absolutely buy again from this seller.

This seller was great. They corresponded with me in a timely manner and the book came in the condition exactly as it was listed. The book is in almost new condition and they sold it for a VERY reasonable price. This seller even went the extra mile - they made sure to protect the book in its shipping package from any potential damage during transport. Very happy with my purchase! Thank you again! 5/5
