The Family in Clinical Psychiatry (Oxford Medical Publications)

The Family in Clinical Psychiatry breaks new ground by considering the role of family factors in psychiatric illness. It is not another text on family therapy, but rather a comprehensive account of how family issues are relevant in the assessment and management of psychiatric illness in general. Given the reputation of the authors, it is bound to become a standard reference for psychiatrists, both trained and in training, as well as for other health professioanls.
