'well-referenced aid that will be appreaciated by many in the field as it is very user-friendly. It is a handy and appreciated reference volume for anybody treating delirium patients, particularly in palliative medicine.'Psychological Medicine'It achieves its aim to encourage further exploration of this difficult area.'Palliative Medicine, Vol 18, 2'This is a useful and stimulating book that takes our thinking about the meaning and management of delirium one step further. A worthy addition to the Palliative Care Service library.'IAHPC website, "This is a useful and stimulating book that takes our thinking about the meaning and management of delirium one step further. A worthy addition to the Palliative Care Service library." --IAHPC website, As with its predecessor, I think this would be a useful book to have on the palliative care service bookshelf., "This book takes on the very challenging and often unrecognized symptom in palliative care that is delirium. The authors achieve their stated interdisciplinary treatment approach to delirium. Throughout the book, neurological, psychiatric, and pharmacological perspectives are applied with great detail and with the use of appropriate references to published studies. The authors offer an interesting perspective on the historical evolution and international terminology of delirium. We recommend this book to all who are involved in caring for the terminally ill." -- Negin Salimi, D.O. and Jeremy M. Hirst, M.D.. San Diego Hospice and the Institute for Palliative Medicine, JOURNAL OF PALLIATIVE MEDICINE, This is an unexpected book. It offers more than the title suggests. It is probably too expensive for most personal collections but should find a place in bench libraries in hospices, general hospitals and larger health centres. It should become essential reading for the psychiatrist working with the physically ill including those in palliative care., Review from previous edition: "...a well-edited and well-referenced aid that will be appreaciated by many in the field as it is very user-friendly. It is a handy and appreciated reference volume for anybody treating delirium patients, particularly in palliative medicine." --Psychological Medicine, This neat little book, now in its second edition, is a great little compendium for those wishing for a succinct update and reference book on delirium ... The book covers all the key areas of delirium from the history of the concept to diagnostic issues through to current theories of pathophysiology and of course covering key issues of clinical management. Commendably the importance of family and psychological issues are given appropriate attention. The text is succinct and clearthroughout. For a textbook it is surprisingly up to date ... The 'case reports' (clinical vignettes) scattered through the book add a clinical context to the main text, helping to reinforce the key messages of the book and make the book easier and more interesting to read., "This book takes on the very challenging and often unrecognized symptom in palliative care that is delirium. The authors achieve their stated interdisciplinary treatment approach to delirium. Throughout the book, neurological, psychiatric, and pharmacological perspectives are applied with great detail and with the use of appropriate references to published studies. The authors offer an interesting perspective on the historical evolution and international terminology of delirium. We recommend this book to all who are involved in caring for the terminally ill." -- Negin Salimi, D.O. and Jeremy M. Hirst, M.D..
