About the Book
"Psychosomatic Medicine" is a book and DVD package providing a fresh approach to mastering the concepts and practice of modern consult-liaison psychiatry for residents and practitioners. Written by over 90 internationally known contributors, the comprehensive 2-color book includes psychosomatic medicine symptoms, diagnostic dilemmas, and the interaction between numerous physical and psychiatric conditions. Special topics addressed include diagnostic and classificatory dilemmas, women's health issues, pregnancy, sexuality, ethical considerations, drug interactions, and more.
