Additional text
As an inpatient psychiatrist who focuses primarily on patients with psychotic symptoms, I found this book to be a vital resource. It is easy to read and concise, yet complete, thus serving as a helpful guide. Providers can feel confident that it will be sufficient to assist them in the treatment of patients who do not respond to the more commonly prescribed antipsychotics.
