This is a must-have reference for all clinicians who work with patients with medical and psychiatric comorbidity. . . The editors and chapter authors are leading experts in their fields, and many have training and expertise beyond their psychiatric specialties. This lends an invaluable perspective to this well-thought-out and comprehensive book.

Psychiatric Care of the Medical Patient, Third Edition has set a new standard for texts in this area. Fundamentally the book is a true compendium of what the Psychosomatic Psychiatrist must have. It is impossible for a clinician to remember all of this data so it is mandatory that such a book be at their fingertips!

The third edition of Psychiatric Care of the Medical Patient extends the philosophy that guided the first two editions: that Medical Psychiatry is a distinct subspecialty taking advantage of physicians' full breadth of psychiatric capabilities combined with detailed knowledge of one or more medical-surgical specialties. This is a landmark textbook that should be on the shelf of every physician who cares for patients with comorbid mental and medical disorders.
