Geriatrics and geriatric psychiatry are a turning point in their history: major growth in clinical interest and research activity has sparked fresh discoveries in the field. No longer are senility and depression viewed solely as a fate in growing old, an unavoidable concomitant of ageing. This work has been developed in response to major advances in the field. As in the first edition of this work, well-known contributors offer their collective expertise on emerging issues in the psychiatry of ageing, providing mental health practitioners with a focused but comprehesive review of the field. Much of the first edition has been rewritten, revised or updated, and new chapters have been added to reflect recent advances in theory and practice.

"I found the first edition of this book very useful in my preparing for the examination of ABPN's added qualifications in geriatric psychiatry and later, as a reference to turn to for review, and for reminders when treating patients of information once learned and since forgotten. This second edition, greatly expanded, revised, and updated, is to my mind still the best general geropsychiatric text for these purposes. It deserves not only a place on the shelf of all psychiatrists, but also on the shelves of all physicians who work with the elderly."- "Missouri Psychiatry"
