The Textbook of Neuropsychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, published more than 30 years ago, was the first book to address neuropsychiatric disorders in a comprehensive fashion. At the time of its release, patients often shuttled between psychiatrists and neurologists in search of help for these disorders, which are common, highly disabling, and a source of uncertainty for patients and their families. In this thoroughly revised and restructured sixth edition, the editors offer a modern reconsideration of the core concepts, conditions, and approaches in neuropsychiatry, providing clinicians with the knowledge and tools they need to practice in this demanding field. As with earlier editions, the contributors were selected with care and represent both senior members and rising stars in behavioral neurology and neuropsychiatry. Although the text is rigorous and grounded in the latest research, the content is practical and relevant to both front line practitioners and those in clinical training.

From the initial overview of the principles of structural and functional neuroanatomy and neuropsychiatric assessment, to the neuropsychiatry of neurodevelopmental disorders, acquired neurological conditions, neurodegenerative disorders, and primary psychiatric disorders, the Textbook of Neuropsychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences is meticulously edited, painstakingly researched, and compellingly written.
