Psychiatrists and other mental health care and medical professionals can now turn to a truly authoritative, up-to-date reference for current information about mood disorders. The American Psychiatric Publishing Textbook of Mood DisordersAincluding a wealth of illustrations, tables and referencesApresents the state of the art in diagnosis, psychobiology, pharmacotherapy, and psychotherapy across the vast spectrum of mood disorders: Symptomatology and Epidemiology: -Historical aspects and social underpinnings of mood disorders. -Classification and rating scales. -Global burden (the high costs of depression and bipolar disorder). Pathogenesis: -Neurochemistry and psychoneuroendocrinology. -Cognitive processing models (experimental cognitive research). -Evolutionary explanations (the normal role of low mood in disengaging individuals from goals they cannot reach). Methods of Investigation: -Anatomical pathology (strengths and limitations of human postmortem studies). -Molecular and cellular neurobiology of severe mood disorders (abnormalities in the regulation of signaling). -Genetics of bipolar and unipolar disorders. Types of Mood Disorder: -Psychotic depression (distinct from nonpsychotic depression in presenting features, biology, familial transmission, course, and response to treatment). -Seasonal affective disorder (use of light therapy in SADS and also in other depression). -Secondary depression with medical illness (calling for large-scale studies to gauge treatment efficacy). -Major depression seen in primary care (as prevalent as hypertension). -Substance abuse (a long-standing source of controversy). -Sleep disorders (risk factors for the new onset of depression). Treatments: -Pharmacotherapy (including tricyclics and tetracyclics, MAOIs, SSRIs and newer antidepressants, lithium and other mood stabilizers, antipsychotics, hormonal interventions, and augmentation strategies). -Brain stimulation techniques (such as ECT, transcranial magnetic stimulation, and vagus nerve and deep brain stimulation). -Psychotherapies (cognitive-behavioral, interpersonal, and psychoanalytic/psychodynamic). Pertinent Factors: -Personality (the need for further study of the degree and the etiologic nature of relationships between specific traits or disorders and major depression). -Culture (suggesting a model of cultural consultation using multilingual, multicultural clinicians and culture brokers to supplement routine care). -Gender (women being about twice as likely as men to have mood disorders) -Age (pediatric and geriatric depression and suicidality).
