This psychiatric-mental health undergraduate textbook emphasizes interpersonal relations as the foundation for practice in nursing. It provides a historical overview of the profession, and guides the student through the essential phases of self-discovery necessary to integrate interpersonal nursing theory into practice with various psychiatric populations.
The book presents content designed to foster self-growth, including the importance of boundary management, in preparation for work with clients. Psychodynamic frames of reference and current neurobiological information underpinning practice are reviewed. Subsequent chapters focus on prominent and common mental illnesses, and weave both the psychodynamic and neurobiological concepts into strategies for nursing interventions. Clinical case studies with critical thinking exercises augment chapter discussions.

This is a well written text that contains a comprehensive view of nursing practice. This source has been helpful to me in a number of ways. I highly recommend this text to anyone who has an interest in exemplary nursing practice.By Marissa Montalvo
The authors provide an exceptional text that places contemporary psychiatric mental health nursing (PMHN) practice in an historical context respectful of the rich and timeless contributions of nurse theorists to this specialty practice. This easy to read text provides the learner with a breadth of resources that support the understanding of key concepts and frames practice in the essential role of the nurse/patient relationship. The text provides in depth consideration of a wide range of psychiatric and mental health issues and draws attention to the developmental, cultural, and ethical issues inherent in mental health nursing practice. Each chapter provides clinical exemplars that highlight the application of nursing principles to guide the learner in the development of the clinical skills required for effective professional practice. In addition, it examines dimensions of the role of nurse in the current health care system, situates the nurse as a voice for effective policy initiatives and clearly defines the nurses' professional responsibilities in the political arena. More than an introduction to PMHN practice, this text is a comprehensive resource for practitioners in other specialty areas as they seek to understand the mental health issues they encounter in their practice specialty.By M. Patrice McCarthy, PhD, RN, CNS
