商品描述

This thought-provoking book covers the full range of psychopharmacologic practice in textbook fashion, offering a fresh and comprehensive self-examination. Unlike conventional texts of psychopharmacology, this text speaks directly to clinicians who have started to question the limitations of psychopharmacologic claims and the rigid confines of DSM-5 diagnoses. Drawing from their clinical and research experience as well as new literature, the well-published authors provide a new perspective that encourages readers to reevaluate established practices and embrace that medication is just one component of treatment and has limits. The book could be used by psychiatric residents in their course of study, by clinical psychology students taking a psychopharmacology course, or by psychiatrists curious to get a readable but comprehensive look at new critical viewpoints in psychopharmacology that have changed since they were taught. Many neuroscience students who are looking for areview of clinical effects to guide their basic research may also find the proposed text more useful than those texts that collate clinical trials.

Current texts are for specialized scientists or are part of multi-authored texts which list drugs alphabetically with no conceptual framework, or books that pretend that each biochemical drug property has a clear and known clinical result presented in cartoon style. Some lesser known texts for psychology or nursing students are not authoritative. Others aimed at patients or families are too simplistic for clinicians. The authors' goal was to create a unified text expressing their view of psychopharmacology, its evidence base, the unity of its essential principles, and its independence of DSM or ICD diagnosis.

Several new history books describe the "rise and fall" of psychopharmacology, the corruption of big pharma and the failure of large controlled clinical trials. Psychopharmacology Reconsidered: A Concise Guide Exploring the Limits of Diagnosis and Treatment ensures that young clinicians are aware of and understand this critical zeitgeist but aware also of the essential core of psychopharmacology and the evidence upon which it rests.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本引人深思的書以教科書的方式涵蓋了心理藥理學實踐的全範圍，提供了一個新穎且全面的自我檢視。與傳統的心理藥理學文本不同，本書直接針對那些開始質疑心理藥理學主張的局限性以及DSM-5診斷的僵化界限的臨床醫師。作者們根據他們的臨床和研究經驗以及新的文獻，提供了一種新的視角，鼓勵讀者重新評估既定的實踐，並接受藥物只是治療的一個組成部分，並且有其局限性。這本書可以供精神科住院醫師在學習過程中使用，臨床心理學學生在修習心理藥理學課程時參考，或是對於想要以可讀性強但全面的方式了解心理藥理學新批判觀點的精神科醫師。許多尋求臨床效果以指導基礎研究的神經科學學生也可能會發現這本書比那些彙整臨床試驗的文本更有用。

目前的文本要麼是針對專業科學家的，要麼是多位作者共同撰寫的文本，這些文本按字母順序列出藥物，卻沒有概念框架，或是那些假裝每種生化藥物特性都有明確且已知的臨床結果的書籍，這些結果以卡通風格呈現。一些針對心理學或護理學生的較不知名的文本並不具權威性。其他針對患者或家庭的書籍對臨床醫師來說過於簡化。作者的目標是創建一本統一的文本，表達他們對心理藥理學的看法、其證據基礎、其基本原則的統一性，以及其獨立於DSM或ICD診斷的特性。

幾本新的歷史書籍描述了心理藥理學的「興起與衰落」、大型製藥公司的腐敗以及大型控制臨床試驗的失敗。《心理藥理學再思：探索診斷與治療界限的簡明指南》確保年輕的臨床醫師意識到並理解這一關鍵的時代精神，同時也了解心理藥理學的基本核心及其所依賴的證據。
