Hallucinations in Psychoses and Affective Disorders: A Clinical and Biological Approach

Editat de Paolo Brambilla, Massimo Carlo Mauri, Alfredo Carlo Altamura
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 sep 2018
This book presents state of the art knowledge on the psychopathology, clinical symptomatology, biology, and treatment of hallucinations in patients with psychoses and affective disorders. The opening section describes and examines the origins of the hallucinatory symptoms associated with schizophrenia, bipolar disorders, and drug- or substance-induced psychoses. In addition, progress in understanding of hallucinations in children and adolescents and chronic hallucinatory disorder is reviewed, and the value of a Research Domain Criteria approach in elucidating the emergence of auditory hallucinations is explained. The biological basis of hallucinations is then closely scrutinized with reference to recent genetic research, neurochemical studies, and functional and structural neuroimaging data. Outcomes of a meta-analysis of diffusion tensor imaging studies regarding the association between white matter integrity and auditory verbal hallucinations are highlighted. The closing chaptersfocus on the roles of drug treatment and electric and magnetic brain stimulation techniques. The book will be of wide interest to psychiatrists and clinical psychologists.

Recenzii

“This is a thorough, detailed, and well-written book that helps readers get an in-depth understanding of the nature of hallucinations in psychiatry. It is well organized, and presents the information in a digestible form, which would otherwise be difficult to find in a consolidated source such as this.” (Jeff K Abbott, Doody's Book Reviews, March, 15, 2019)

Caracteristici

Broadens readers’ understanding of misperceptions that principally occur in schizophrenia or under the influence of three main classes of drugs Presents the latest evidence on the biological basis of hallucinations, drawing on genetic research and neuroimaging data Covers Chronic Hallucinatory Disorder Psychopathology Includes the transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) technique, which has been shown to ameliorate auditory verbal hallucinations in schizophrenia
