About the Book

The range of severity in depressive disorders is great -- Severe Depressive Disorders is the first book published that provides an in-depth look at the most severe end of the spectrum. The book is oriented toward the care of patients who require specific attention, careful treatment, and detailed prognostic assessment. Improved understanding, knowledge, and treatment approaches of depressive disorders are stressed throughout. Severe Depressive Disorders contains a distinguished list of contributors who present original concepts in the causes of, and treatment for patients with, severe depressive mood disorders.

Table of Contents:
Assessment of severe depressive disorders. Mechanisms underlying the evolution of affective disorders: implications for long-term treatment. Genetics and major affective disorders. Family functioning in severe depressive disorders. Chronicity, relapse, recurrence, and psychosocial morbidity in severe depression and the role of maintenance treatment. Major depressive disorder and panic disorder: the syndrome and its characteristics. Diagnosis and treatment of psychotic (delusional) depression. Dysthymia. Suicide. Pharmacotherapy of depressive disorders. Cognitive-behavior therapy of severe unipolar depression. Electroconvulsive therapy for severe depressive disorders.

Review :
"As a whole, the book is an excellent short review and should be useful to clinicians in the often problematic diagnosis and treatment of acute or chronic depression."-- "Readings: A Journal of Reviews and Commentary in Mental Health" "This is an excellent summary of critical information on the assessment, neurobiology, genetics, prognosis, comorbidity, and treatment information for patients with severe and/or chronic mood disorders. Each chapter provides a pithy synopsis of our current state of knowledge in a succinct, reader-friendly manner. Practitioners wishing a synopsis of state-of-the-art management of chronic and severe mood disorders will find this an exceedingly valuable volume."-- "A. John Rush, M.D., Director, Mental Health Clinical Research Center, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas" "This thoroughly readable, theoretically and clinical relevant book is current in both references and thinking. It is that rare species of edited book that reads as if a single voice were at work, as exemplified by the cross-referencing of chapters by different authors."-- "Psychiatric Times"
