Description
Now in full color, this comprehensive text blends a neurological understanding of mental disorders with the traditional psychodynamic approach to address changing roles and new perspectives for nursing practice.

Special features include: solid psychopharmacological content; case studies based on care plans; psychoeducation checklists; biopsychosocial/biological art; and clinical vignettes. Each chapter includes key concepts, key points summary, and critical thinking challenge questions.
