Article Abstract

From our regular book review column.

For several years, Stephen Stahl has made notable contributions
to how clinicians can master the clinical psychopharmacologic
needs of their patients. His numerous texts have
provided clear and concise explanations regarding what we
know about the mechanisms of action of the medications we
use, when to use them, and what combination treatments might
offer safe (and at times unsafe) alternatives for our difficult-totreat
patients.

Stahl’s Essential Psychopharmacology Online is the modern
iteration of Stahl’s textbook by the same name.
