OK, so it's not ALL of C&L, but it does represent the equivalent of the best review articles of each C&L subject(the way MY hospital teaches the subject.)In fact some of the hints, especially by Dr./Fr. Casem, I have not found anywhere else, and are very practical even at my basic level (I am a psychiatry resident,curently doing my C&L rotation.) My attending was so impressed at my "knowledge" (I'd read the book!), HE went out and bought one, too. If you've an interest in C&L psychiatry, or in the management of "difficult" patients on any hospital service, this book surely tops the list.By Lyle B. Forehand
This is simply the best overview of psychiatry currently available. If you treat human beings--or simply want to understand them better,read this book. Why this one? Medical "literature," unfortunately, is often little more than data-mongering. Data can be interesting, but on its own, it will not help you care for patients competently and compassionately. Very rarely, a medical text goes beyond data and information to knowledge, an informed, balanced, comprehensive, learned, and practical perspective. This book is *always* knowledgeable, but often goes one better,achieving (and conveys) that most rare of medical traits, wisdom. Read this book: your patients, and your practice will be better for it.By Dr. James A. Holmlund
