The Medical Basis of Psychiatry
George Winokur
The Medical Basis of Psychiatry - 2nd Edition, illustrated - London Saunders, 1994 Original from the University of Michigan Digitized 5 Aug 2008 - 603 pages
In this 2nd Edition, Drs. Winokur and Clayton examine an approach to diagnosis and classification--that mental illness is a medical disease associated with adverse behavior or emotional changes. The text calls on some of the most respected practitioners to present the medical model in a way that's understandable, reasonable, and thought-provoking. And it clarifies the diagnostic importance of epidemiology, clinical presentation, course of illness, biological background, genetic correlates, response to treatment, and personality associations.
