'Psychiatry' introduces medicine students to the subject in a concise, innovative and memorable way. Its patient-centred approach integrates the theoretical basis of different psychiatric disorders with an explanation of the management of these disorders in clinical practice.

Formerly 'The Concise Oxford Textbook of Psychiatry' this text emphasizes the assessment of psychiatric problems and focuses on their management in everyday clinical practice, giving advice on referral of patients to specialist psychiatrists.

This text provides an introduction to psychiatry for medical students beginning their psychiatric attachment, with the content reflecting both the major schools of thought, biological and psychodynamic.
