Reviews
'The amount of useful practical knowledge packed into this volume is remarkable, but with the author's literary skills it makes for easy reading. It is a model of order, clarity ... It is to be recommended without reservation.'Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 'The Shorter Oxford Textbook of Psychiatry is one of the best examples of the genre. The layout is clear and it is comprehensive without being obscure. Most importantly it is fluent If I were about to sit postgraduate examinations in psychiatry, I would choose this book.'British Journal of Psychiatry, This is an essential introductory book, best suited for psychiatric trainees, especially those preparing for the examinations. This book presents core psychiatric knowledge in a format suitable for medical students and non-psychiatrist doctors as well as psychologists, social workers, nurses and even mental health managers. I would recommend the Shorter Oxford Textbook of Psychiatry, 5th edition for every trainee in psychiatry..., 'This is a well-written textbook with a pragmatic orientation toward practice, chock-full of hard-to-find clinical tidbits. Overall, Oxford Textbook of Psychiatry is a sound textbook for clinical psychiatrists. Its strength lies in its historical underpinnings and the different perspectivesfrom standard US viewpoints.'Journal of the American Medical Association, 'The authors have succeeded admirably in the formidable task of instilling virtually the whole of clinical psychiatry into just over 1000 pages. The text is clearly written, effortless to read and is replete with essential information.'International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry, "This new edition is a vast improvement. It is very well organized, thorough, and well written. The amount of material in this single volume is, indded, impressive and rivalsThe American Psychiatric Publishing Textbook of Clinical Psychiatry 4e,by Hales and Yudofsky (American Psychiatric Publishing, 2003) in this regard. This book would be invaluable even for American psychiatrists-in-training, and could serve as an excellent reference source for practicing clinicians."--Doody's, "This new edition is a vast improvement.

Synopsis
The Shorter Oxford Textbook of Psychiatry has established itself as the leading textbook for trainees in psychiatry. Written by psychiatrists of international acclaim, the book provides information on all the areas of psychiatry that trainees need to cover. The new edition continues the tradition of its predecessors, having been brought up to date to cover the most recent advances. Redesigned, both inside and out, the new edition of the Shorter Oxford Textbook of Psychiatry will be the one essential text for psychiatric trainees., Widely recognised as the standard text for trainee psychiatrists, the 'Shorter Oxford Textbook of Psychiatry' stands head and shoulders above the competition. Written by three of the most experienced clinicians and researchers in European psychiatry and neuroscience, the text has been honed over five editions and displays a fluency, authority and insight which is not only rarely found but makes the process of assimilating information as smooth and enjoyable as possible. The book provides an introduction to all the clinical topics required by the trainee psychiatrist, including all the sub-specialties and major psychiatric conditions. Throughout, the authors emphasize the basic clinical skills required for the full assessment and understanding of the patient. Discussion of treatment includes not only scientific evidence, but also practical problems in the management of individual patients. The text emphasizes an evidence-based approach to practice and gives full attention to ethical and legal issues. Introductory chapters focus on recognition of signs and symptoms, classification and diagnosis, psychiatric assessment, and aetiology. Further chapters cover both pharmacological and psychological treatments in detail. A key feature is the equal prominence given to ICD and DSM classification - often with direct comparisons - which gives the book a universal appeal. Revised to include the latest evidence and guidelines using a team of expert advisors, the 'Shorter Oxford Textbook of Psychiatry' is the most up-to-date secondary level textbook of psychiatry available. The fifth edition also boasts a new modern design and greater use of summary boxes, tables, and lists than ever before. The extensive bibliography has been brought right up to date and there are targeted reading lists for each chapter. The 'Shorter Oxford Textbook of Psychiatry' fulfils all the study and revision needs of psychiatric trainees, but will also prove useful to medical students, GPs, qualified psychiatrists, and those in related fields who need to keep up to date with current psychiatric practice., This volume provides an introduction to all the clinical topics required by the trainee psychiatrist. It emphasizes an evidence-based approach to practice and gives full attention to ethical and legal issues.
