From Chapter 1 ‘Depression, like many other mental disorders, is
characterised by the presence of a number of symptoms which are
changeable over time.’ Among these symptoms are a depressed mood
and a loss of interest; physical and cognitive changes may also
occur. Because of difficulties in diagnosis (and varied criteria)
only estimates in the global number of cases of depression can be
made. Some estimates put it in front of chronic heart disease as a
health problem and cause of death.
This revised edition covers developments in diagnosis, theraphy,
prognosis, economic evaluation and quality improvement.
* Provides accompanying commentaries by an outstanding line up of
contributors
* Covers developments in diagnosis, therapy, prognosis, economic
evaluation and quality improvement
* Provides an unbiased and reliable reference point
