Abstract

« Les Parisiens sont pris de convulsions sur une tombe au cimetière Saint-Médard… Moreau de Tours fait essayer le haschich à ses amis écrivains… Charcot scrute les miracles de Lourdes… Les Surréalistes recommandent aux fous d’assassiner leur psychiatre… Les théories de Freud débarquent en France en pleine Affaire Dreyfus… » Ces « Petits moments de l’histoire de la psychiatrie en France » sont jalonnés de personnages remarquables par leur compassion et leur dévouement. Pinel, Cabanis et Lasègue ont légué une œuvre écrite pleine d’humanisme. Itard nous émeut de ses observations auprès de Victor, l'enfant sauvage de l'Aveyron. Franz Fanon n'a manifestement pas obtenu la reconnaissance qu'il aurait méritée. On y découvre aussi des figures insolites, comme la princesse Marie Bonaparte ou Henri Baruk, qui ont occupé en leur temps une place incontournable. La naissance des médicaments relève parfois de l'épopée, comme le succès inattendu des neuroleptiques et l'échec du LSD. Un Prix Nobel vient couronner la vogue des lobotomies, alors qu'ailleurs, idées politiques ou idéologiques vont souvent à l'encontre de l'intérêt du malade. D'essais inspirés en entreprises hasardeuses, la psychiatrie s'est constituée par l'amalgame successif d'épisodes épiques, parfois tragiques, souvent passionnés, qui ont été le fait de quelques hommes, des idées qui les animaient et du contexte historique qu'ils traversaient. Un livre passionnant pour vivre de merveilleux moments d'histoire de la psychiatrie.

Or, are these your own symptoms to the prospect of sitting for the neurology board exam? Neurology Study Guide: Oral Board Examination Review will help alleviate your exam-related symptoms.

Part 2 provides sample adult and pediatric vignettes, mirroring that part of the oral Board. Each vignette is presented in a format similar to the exam’s format. Each case provides a differential diagnosis, most likely diagnosis and treatment recommendations.

Armed with a good night’s sleep, an adequate breakfast and Neurology Study Guide: Oral Board Examination Review the board examinations can be an engaging, challenging, and invigorating experience, rather than one to be dreaded.

Abstract

Patients with many disorders considered primarily "neurological" also have behavior disorders that are either overlooked, ignored by the attending clinical neurologist, or referred to a psychiatrist. In fact, it is becoming ever clearer that neurology and psychiatry share common ground and need each other. In Psychiatry for Neurologists, a panel of internationally recognized psychiatrists, neurologists, clinical psychologists, and neuropsychiatrists review for the clinical neurologist those aspects of psychiatry that impact the management of neurological disorders. On the one hand, the authors illuminate the neurological aspects of such psychiatric disorders as depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, hysteria, catatonia, addictions, and personality disorders. On the other hand, they also explain in detail the psychiatric evaluation of the neurological patient and discuss the behavioral aspects of the major neurological disorders, including psychiatric complications of dementia and stroke, neuromuscular disorders, the psychiatric aspects of Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, Huntington's disease, Tourette's syndrome, and multiple sclerosis. Additional chapters examine childhood and geriatric disorders, fatigue, delirium, psychopharmacology, and the problems of managing psychiatric emergencies in a neurological practice. Comprehensive and timely, Psychiatry for Neurologists helps to close the artificial gap separating neurology and psychiatry so that neurologists feel comfortable managing the psychiatric aspects of the neurological disorders they treat.

Abstract

In the wake of the French Revolution, as attempts to restore political stability to France repeatedly failed, a group of concerned intellectuals identified a likely culprit: the prevalent sensationalist psychology, and especially the flimsy and fragmented self it produced. They proposed a vast, state-run pedagogical project to replace sensationalism with a new psychology that showcased an indivisible and actively willing self, or moi. As conceived and executed by Victor Cousin, this long-lived project singled out the male bourgeoisie for training in selfhood --Cousin and his disciples deemed workers and women incapable of the introspective finesse necessary to appropriate that self in practice.

Abstract

Cognitive behavior therapy which has been adapted to treat so many problems, has also brought data-driven and data-yielding treatment to insomnia. Focusing on this evidence-based modality, Cognitive Behavioral Treatment of Insomnia is a much-needed treatment manual that provides clinicians with the why’s and how’s of this approach in concise and practical terms. This book, which is written as a reader-friendly guide, is intended for clinical trainees, non-insomnia sleep specialists, and for expert CBT clinicians from outside the sleep medicine field who wish to begin the process of learning to provide empirically validated CBT-I. The Book is organized into seven parts: definition of insomnia; review of the conceptual; framework for treatment; overview of the components of therapy; session-by-session guide; dialogues; assessment and eligibility for CBT-I; and sample documentation. The organizing principles for the guide can best be expressed as two seemingly simple questions: "Who is appropriate for CBT-I?" "What does one need to know to set up a Behavioral Sleep Medicine service?" The guide provides all that one needs to confidently answer these questions.
