This concise new book reports on what psychiatry can, and cannot, do - today. Not content with raising questions about the various treatment procedures, the authors draw on their vast clinical experience and knowledge of the current literature to develop careful, detailed guidelines for the modern practitioner, supported by an extraordinarily extensive bibliography and over 50 well-organized tables that bring their conclusions into graphic focus. Both a practical guide and a textbook, "Modern Psychiatric Treatment" clarifies and opens new horizons in psychiatry and will be of inestimable value to psychiatrists, other physicians, and the many professionals concerned with the study, care, evaluation, and treatment of the mentally ill.
