Description

Long considered the Cinderella diagnosis among the anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is now coming out of its position of obscurity and is being seen as the major personal and societal disorder that it is. This new updated edition of this comprehensive book covers the diagnosis and management of this often misunderstood condition, through to the new molecular biological and imaging studies. New chapters cover breakthroughs in the scientific understanding of PTSD, animal models of PTSD, pathophysiology and genetics of PTSD. Post-traumatic Stress Disorder will be of interest to all professionals working in the field of psychiatry, but especially to those with a specific interest in the treatment of anxiety disorders.
