  • I received my copy of this fantastic text three days ago; then I put all my attention to scam it. I'm a disciple of Dr. Ghaemi philosophy and viewpoints since my early years of residency until now. Every piece of thought written by him embraces the "humanistic psychiatry" approach. This is not a classical Psychopharmacology text, like those of Dr. Stahl. The text is aimed at curbing the "neuromythology" of following theoretical knowledge for caring of patients without valid clinical evidence. It challenges the common "Galenic" approach of relying on neurotransmitter changes and promote the "Hippocratic" approach to treat only identified diseases and give symptoms watchful care without harm. The text presents a philosophy for the humanistic mental health care more than presenting drug info. Dr. Ghaemi has put a lot of his personal experience tips on managing adverse drug problems. I think this text is complimentary and augmenting other classical neuroscientific books of Psychopharmacology. Whatever the drug x is changing they neurotransmitter or modulating the z receptor, don't rely on this without valid clinical data from controlled trials. This is the bottom line of the text.
  • I am going to school to become a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. The Stahl Books were used as our textbooks, but I wanted another viewpoint. This book is new so it has up-to-date Information on new series and new drugs. The Author puts forward some very interesting information about all matters regarding treating mental health issues. As a student I love this book because it makes me think about things in a different way and provide so much information. Neuroanatomy and neurobiology can be challenging for me,but this doctor/author writes well and explains things in a way that I can understand! Highly recommended for those becoming PMHNPs.
  • Dr. Ghaemi is brilliant, honest and science based. Psychiatry has suffered at the hands of the DSM. We are the only medical profession that treats "Disorders" vs "Disease". Symptom prescribing is non-scientific and dangerous. Dr. Ghaemi's Psychopharm. book is a beautiful guide to science based prescribing.
  • Really did learn a lot about bipolar disorder and how to better treat it.
  • Simply the best psychopharmacology book I ever read !
  • This book is very thorough and well outlined. This author knows his material and clearly explains the topics.
  • Absolutamente indispensable para cualquier psiquiatra que se precie de seriedad en su desempeño profesional.
