Peter McKenna guides the reader through a vast amount of literature on schizophrenia plus related syndromes such as paranoia and schizoaffective disorder, providing detailed and in-depth, but highly readable, accounts of the key areas of research. The book describes the clinical features of schizophrenia and its causes and treatment, covering subjects such as:
- Aetiological factors in schizophrenia
- The neurodevelopmental theory of schizophrenia
- Neuroleptic drug treatment
- Paraphrenia and paranoia
- Childhood schizophrenia, autism and Asperger's syndrome
Schizophrenia and Related Syndromes will prove invaluable for psychiatrists and clinical psychologists in training and in practice. It will also be a useful guide for mental health professionals and researchers working in related fields.
