Kaplan & Sadock's Synopsis of Psychiatry | by Robert Boland | 12th Edition | Paperback

Kaplan & Sadock's Synopsis of Psychiatry

There is a reason Kaplan & Sadock's Synopsis of Psychiatry has been the single-volume psychiatry textbook for decades: it covers the entire field – every disorder, the neuroscience behind it, psychopharmacology and psychotherapy – in one book you can actually read cover to cover. The 12th edition, by Boland, Verduin and Ruiz, keeps that tradition while bringing everything in line with DSM-5 and ICD-10.

The clinical focus is sharper in this edition. Case examples, tables and colour illustrations are everywhere, and the chapters on neuroscience, genetics and psychopharmacology have been thoroughly refreshed.

What's Inside

• Comprehensive coverage of every major psychiatric disorder, aligned with DSM-5 and ICD-10 criteria
• Updated chapters on neuroscience, genetics, psychopharmacology and psychotherapy
• Clinical case examples, tables and color illustrations throughout
• New emphasis on practical diagnosis and treatment for residents and practitioners
• The trusted exam-prep reference for PRITE, ABPN boards and psychiatry rotations

Who It's For

Psychiatry residents use it for PRITE and the ABPN boards, medical students use it on rotation, and psychiatric nurse practitioners, psychologists and practising clinicians keep it as their go-to reference. If you can own only one psychiatry textbook, this is the one.
