Article Abstract

Because this piece does not have an abstract, we have provided for your benefit the first 3 sentences of the full text.

This is an outstanding book filled with practical information on the rapidly expanding field of psychopharmacology. In the 6 years since the publication of the first edition of this book, the art and science of psychopharmacology have undergone many changes, with substantial refinements and elaboration. As a practicing clinician and psychiatry educator, I have long enjoyed Dr. Pies’ articles and clinical vignettes published in his Psychiatric Times columns.’ ‹
