Review

‘...we are dealing with an extremely interesting and valuable book, which is unique in its kind.The volume is an attempt to sythesize the avilable scientific evidence and relevant clinical experience to recommend medication guidelines or decision trees for particluar types of mood disorders. Such guidelines are particluarly needed in view of the availability of so many differen drugs and the increasing awareness of the risk of chronicity in depression. ...
The quality of the chapters is generally high and the topics they deal with are extremely relevant to clinical practice. Even for the careful reader of the psychopharmacologic literature there is frequent room for new insights and information. The content of the chapters common in this masterfully edited book is such that the clinican may find answers to the vexing questions: "And now, what am I going to do with this patient?" It is nice to have such distinguished colleagues to rely on. ...
I strongly recommend this excellent book. We need books like this ...
... deserves a wide audience and may become required reading in residency training programs.’

Step-by-step scientifically-based procedures
This volume provides up-to-date, scientifically-based alternative treatment algorithms for various kinds of mood disorders. It is one of the first publications to enunciate stepwise, specified pharmacological management procedures recommended for major depressive, bipolar, and dysthymic disorders. In addition, it indicates the role for special forms of treatment for depression, including light and electroconvulsive therapies, based on published peer-reviewed scientific literature and extensive in-depth clinical experience.
It will be of particular interest to psychiatric residents, internists, family physicians, general practitioners, nurses, medical students and other mental health professionals who are committed to a scientifically based approach to the management of patients with mood disorders.
