- Includes chapters written by the leading experts in their areas, making this the most authoritative text on the subject
- Presented in a new attractive format, with colour illustrations
The Oxford Textbook of Old Age Psychiatry is the new edition of the much loved textbook previously published as Psychiatry in the Elderly. It has established itself as the standard textbook in its field due to its unique combination of comprehensive coverage, clear writing and authoritative and up-to-date information. This new edition maintains these strengths, with chapters covering the basic sciences underpinning old age psychiatry, clinical practice, psychiatric services for older people, specific disorders and medico-legal and ethical issues.
The text has been extensively updated, with several new chapters added reflecting
developments in the speciality. These include chapters on: different psychotherapies, e.g. interpersonal therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy, and electroconvulsive therapy; memory clinics and liaison old age psychiatry; mild cognitive impairment and sleep disorders; and chapters by patients reflecting their experiences of their illnesses. The textbook has expanded to include 73 contributors from 8 different countries covering the panoply of relevant expertise. The editorial team has also grown with Robin Jacoby and Catherine Oppenheimer now being joined by Tom Dening and Alan Thomas.
The breadth of authoritative coverage will continue to make this book one which all old age psychiatrists and trainees will want to have on their bookshelves. Geriatricians and
other health professionals working with older people will also find in this book a handy resource to assist them when dealing with psychiatric disorders in older people.Readership: Old age psychiatrists, doctors in postgraduate psychiatry training, other clinical professionals in older people's mental health.

"Many people, including doctors who should know better, still view old age psychiatry as a support service for people with three or four diseases for which little can be done. This book is an ideal answer, with a richness of content ranging from complex neurology and molecular biology to compassion for individual sufferers, their relatives and carers." - Kalman Kafetz, Consultant Geriatrician, London. "This book continues the high standards of its forerunners which have appeared in smart succession to keep up with a changing field. There is no other textbook that sits at this level between the MRCPsych level (eg 'Practical Old Age Psychiatry') and the massive tomes on single issues (eg Burns on dementia)...Overall, the book is
excellent and the chapters are generally of high quality." - 2008 BMA Medical Book Awards "This is a first-rate edition of this textbook...highly recommended." - Doody's Notes
