Clinical Geriatric Psychopharmacology, 3rd ed

From our regular book review column.

The third edition of Salzman’s Clinical Geriatric Psychopharmacology has grown to 592 pages from the 361 pages of the second edition. The large size of the book reflects its broad mission. The volume tries to be, all in one, a textbook of psychopharmacology, an introduction to geropsychiatry, and a practical guide to prescribing psychoactive medications for older patients.
