Psychiatry Reborn: Biopsychosocial psychiatry in modern medicine: International Perspectives in Philosophy and Psychiatry

Editat de Julian Savulescu, Rebecca Roache, Will Davies J. Pierre Loebel
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 oct 2020
Psychiatry Reborn: Biopsychosocial Psychiatry in Modern Medicine is a comprehensive collection of essays by leading experts in the field, and provides a timely reassessment of the biopsychosocial approach in psychiatry. Spanning the sciences and philosophy of psychiatry, the essays offer complementary perspectives on the ever more urgent importance of the biopsychosocial approach to modern medicine. The collection brings together ideas from the series of Loebel Lectures by world leaders in the field of psychiatry and associated Workshops at the University of Oxford, including revised versions of the Lectures themselves, and a wide range of related commentaries and position pieces. With contributions from psychiatry, psychology, neuroscience, and philosophy, the book provides the most comprehensive account to date of the interplay between biological, psychological, and social factors in mental health and their ethical dimensions. The 23 chapters of this multi-authored book review the history and place of the biopsychosocial model in medicine, and explore its strengths and shortcomings. In particular, it considers how understanding this interplay might lead to more effective treatments for mental health disorders, as developments in genomic and neurobiological medicine challenge traditional conceptions and approaches to the research and treatment of mental health disorders. The book explores the challenges and rewards of developing diagnostic tools and clinical interventions that take account of the inextricably intertwined bio-psycho-social domains, and the ethical implications of the conceptualization. It concludes with chapters drawing together the book's range of expertise to propose a best conception of the model, and how it might be adopted going forward in an age of exponentially increasing technological advances and of integrated/collaborative care. The volume is intended to present the BPS model as it stands today in the academy, the lab, and the clinic, and to start to address the challenges and potential that the model has for each.

Recenzii

This interesting book addresses various topics related to the so-called biopsychosocial (BPS) model of mental health ... fascinating ideas abound throughout.
Psychiatry Reborn is a serious and scholarly attempt at making sense of the fractured nature of psychiatry as a discipline. It does so by engaging with philosophical arguments as well as research studies, and it is a valuable book for psychiatrists, psychologists, and philosophers. It is particularly essential reading for students of the BPSM and pluralism in psychiatry, and will shape the discussion on how to best understand the BPSM for years to come.

Pierre Loebel was born in Romania, schooled in Palestine and England, studied philosophy and experimental psychology at Oxford University, followed by medical school in South Africa, and psychiatry at The Bethlem Royal and Maudsley Hospitals, London. Influenced by the teaching and training of Alwyn Lishman, Michael Shepherd, and Isaac Marks and influenced by their wide ranging patient formulations, he developed his interest in bio-psychosocially oriented clinical practice. Specializing in geriatric psychiatry and team based care in Long Term Care institutions, he moved after some years into private practice using the full range of bio-psychosocially oriented evaluation and treatment modalities, in tune with the aphorism ascribed to Hippocrates that "It is insufficient to understand the nature of the illness that the patient has, but also necessary to understand the nature of the patient that the illness has."
