Clinical Psychopharmacology: Principles and Practice Reviews

  • Ahmed Elaghoury

    I received my copy of this fantastic text three days ago; then I put all my attention to cram into it. Im 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 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, dont 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.
