Description
Deconstructing Psychosis: Refining the Research Agenda
for DSM-V provides an all-important summary of the latest research
about the diagnosis and pathophysiology of psychosis. This volume gives the
reader an inside look at how psychotic phenomena are represented in the
current diagnostic system and how DSM-V might better address the needs of
patients with such disorders.
The book presents a selection of papers
reporting the proceedings of a conference titled "Deconstructing Psychosis"
convened by the American Psychiatric Association (APA) in collaboration with
the World Health Organization (WHO) and the U.S. National Institutes of
Health (NIH). The conference was designed to be a key element in the
multiphase research review process for the fifth revision of DSM. This book
is one in a series of ten that reflects some of the most current and
critical examinations of psychiatric disorders and psychotic syndromes. APA
published the fourth edition of DSM in 1994 and a text revision in 2000.
DSM-V is scheduled for publication in 2013.
Deconstructing
Psychosis: Refining the Research Agenda for DSM-V examines the
current evidence regarding the diagnosis and pathophysiology of common
psychotic syndromes including:
* Schizophrenia
* Bipolar disorder
* Major depressive
psychosis
* Substance-induced psychosis
It also addresses broad
issues relating to diagnosis such as the ways in which psychosis cuts across
multiple diagnostic categories. Beyond merely summarizing the current state
of the science, the authors of these papers critique the current research
and clinical evidence, and raise questions about gaps in our
knowledge.
The book provides recommendations for the most promising
areas of research in psychosis, which may lead to more refined treatments
based on a better understanding of what biological and environmental factors
contribute to its development and symptoms.
In the learned editors'
selection of papers for inclusion in this volume, they have exhibited their
conviction that DSM-V is a "living document" that will reflect the pace of
progress in multiple areas, ranging from molecular genetics and brain
imaging to social, behavioral, and anthropological science.
As a book
on the narrowly defined topic of linking the classification of psychotic
syndromes with their underlying pathophysiology and potential etiology,
there is no other writing of comparable content available today.
