Bookedited by Andrew E. Skodol, John M. Oldham.
Summary: "The subject of personality-what makes us each unique and different from one another-has long been a topic of universal fascination. From a medical perspective, the empirical and clinical research on personality disorders has expanded with the advent of standardized diagnostic systems. This continuing and increased activity and progress in the field spurred the development of this third edition of The American Psychiatric Association Publishing Textbook of Personality Disorders. With an emphasis on updating the information most relevant to clinicians, this new edition features contributions from established experts in the field as well as a new generation of scientists. Dozens of tables, illustrative figures, and real-life case examples summarize the vast data that continues to accumulate in five key areas: clinical concepts; risk factors for, and the etiology and impact of, personality disorders; treatment options across therapeutic modalities; special problems, populations, and settings, such as including suicidal behavior, substance use disorders, antisocial behavior, personality pathology in general medical settings, and personality disorders among active-duty military; and the usefulness of translational research in understanding the biopsychosocial nature of the personality disorders. This comprehensive textbook is a comprehensive and essential resource for clinicians looking to stay on the vanguard of a rapidly growing field"-- Provided by publisher
