Understanding Bipolar Disorder

This is the first book to systematically examine the development and course of bipolar disorder across the lifespan, identifying important directions for evidence-based treatment and prevention. The editors and contributors are foremost authorities who synthesize cutting-edge research at multiple levels of analysis, including genetic, neurobiological, cognitive, emotional, and family perspectives. Compelling topics include how bipolar symptoms change from childhood through adolescence and adulthood and the interplay of risk and protective factors at different developmental stages. The volume also addresses how developmental knowledge can inform the selection and timing of clinical interventions.

Perfectly Misunderstood

This is about a love for living, with a side of some nice lyrics. I am not preaching how to think differently, especially when it comes to accepting the unknown. I am sharing my thoughts and opinions of my personal life and observations in my career as a special education teacher for seventeen years. Sometimes we don't get to pick our book of choice. It chooses you! No one needs to be a legend. It is the reality. Period. Accept it. Just leave a positive footprint. Perfect: (1) being entirely without fault or defect, (2) satisfying all requirements, (3) corresponding to an ideal standard or an abstract construct, (4) faithfully reproducing the original, and (5) legally valid.

The Handbook of Neuropsychiatric Biomarkers, Endophenotypes and Genes

Neuropsychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia, mood disorders, Alzheimer's disease, epilepsy, alcoholism, substance abuse and others are some of the most debilitating illnesses worldwide characterized by the complexity of causes, and lacking the laboratory tests that may promote diagnostic and prognostic procedures. Recent advances in neuroscience, genomic, genetic, proteomic and metabolomic knowledge and technologies have opened the way to searching biomarkers and endophenotypes, which may offer powerful and exciting opportunities to understand the etiology and the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of neuropsychiatric disorders. The challenge now is to translate these advances int...

Integrated Treatment for Mood and Substance Use Disorders

  • Publisher: JHU Press

People with mood disorders often have simultaneous problems with addiction, and those with substance abuse problems are especially susceptible to mood disorder. The treatment of such patients can be particularly complicated, and many receive treatment for only one of their disorders. In this book, fourteen clinicians discuss the extent of the problem, methods of assessment, typical courses, and treatments—including both psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy. They address the all-too-frequent necessity of proceeding with treatment before a clear diagnosis is known, and they claim that distinguishing between primary and secondary disorders is initially less critical than previously assumed. Cont...

The Bipolar Brain

Leading experts in neuroimaging and genetics discuss recent discoveries in bipolar disorder that identify the structural, functional, and chemical brain changes that seem to underlie this condition, as well as possible genetic causes of these brain events. This book is a resource to guide clinicians as they struggle to understand this illness and provides a new framework for understanding bipolar disorder in order to, ultimately, develop improved therapies for affected individuals and novel strategies to prevent the onset in children at risk for this condition.
