The many ramifications of mood disorders, particularly depression, are the subject of this informative volume. Experts of international standing present their recent research on the causes, identification, prevalence and treatment of such problems. Geneticists, epidemiologists, psychiatrists and pharmacologists, as well as those working in clinical practice, will find much to interest them in the discussions of depression: its forms, therapy and connection with other affective disorders. Articles on nicotine and alcohol addiction, cancer, HIV, endocrine malfunction, geriatric ailments and pain indicate how frequently these are associated with depressive illnesses. The concept of comorbidity is seen as offering a fresh vantage point from which to take stock of complex situations and develop effective new ways of treatment. ISBN 9783805560320.
