The Anxiety Disorders

Russell Noyes, Jr; Rudolf Hoehn-Saric

doi:10.1017/CBO9780511663222

This comprehensive 1998 text covers all the anxiety disorders found in the latest DSM and ICD classifications. Written by two internationally recognized authorities in the field, it provides detailed information about seven principal disorders, including anxiety in the medically ill. For each, it covers diagnostic criteria, epidemiology, etiology and pathogenesis, clinical features, natural history and differential diagnosis, and describes treatment approaches, both psychological and pharmacological. The scientific literature of the past few decades is thoroughly surveyed, with added insights from history, philosophy and the arts. At once scholarly and clinically to the point, this is a definitive reference for psychiatrists at all levels. It will also be of interest to other mental health professionals and to physicians in other specialties.

‘… the book is clearly written and provides information on both biological and psychological aspects of a range of anxiety disorders. I would recommend this book to medical students with an interest in psychiatry or to psychology students with an interest in the medical approach to anxiety disorders.’
