The legal aspects of child mental health have changed in recent years, yet many who deal professionally with disturbed children are ill informed about the rights and responsibilities of minors. Child Mental Health and the Law addresses the need for a comprehensive, up-to-date text that describes the evolution of child mental health law and the relevance of the law to the child mental health clinician.

The Clinical Process in Psychiatry

Diagnosis and Management Planning

By: Barry Nurcombe,Rollin M. Gallagher

Many texts review the scientific knowledge, diagnostic procedures, clinical syndromes, and therapeutic methods of importance to modern psychiatry. Barry Nurcombe and Rollin Gallagher offer something further. The Clinical Process in Psychiatry is about how to think in clinical settings. The authors take as their organizing theme the supple, efficient, systematic problem-solving of the experienced practitioner: from the eliciting of diagnostic clues and the intuition of patterns, through the generation of hypotheses and the gathering of evidence, to the formulation of comprehensive diagnoses and the design of goal-directed management plans. Throughout, they present theotetical material in a manner which is readily accessible to both students and clinicians during their daily encounters with patients.

Evaluation and Accountability in Clinical Training

By: E. Berler,Barry A. Edelstein

Accountability in clinical training implies a strong relationship between the training outcomes touted by a training program and the performance of its graduates. The training program and its faculty must be able to ensure that students have the competencies necessary for entering the profession and can offer competent services. In addition, responsibility for the quality and value of training must be assumed by the profession. Pressure for accountability is becoming increasingly apparent as the public learns about fraud, waste, and abuse in publicly funded pro grams (Fishman & Neigher, 1982). Federally supported clinical training programs have had to defend their training practices against threats of funding loss without the hard data needed to support their practices. Funding seems to have been forthcoming mostly because of our ability to demonstrate the need for clinical, counseling, and school psychol ogists. Graduates seeking professional careers in such applied fields demand considerable trust from their clientele and the public-at-large when they establish themselves, offer and advertise their services, make claims on public monies, and profess to do good and no harm. Neither their clien tele nor the public are in the position to evaluate the services of the profes sion or the claims made for these. (American Psychological Association lAPA], 1982, p.

Psychiatric Care of the Medical Patient

By: Barry S. Fogel,Donna B. Greenberg

The third edition of Psychiatric Care of the Medical Patient brings a classic reference text into the twenty-first century. It combines critical scholarship with the voice of expert clinicians who work at the interface of psychiatry with medical specialties. It is meant to be read for pleasure as well as consulted as a reference. The editors have worked with the authors to bring a consistent perspective to the book - one that sees the medical psychiatrist as an agent for bringing a more comprehensive perspective to medical care. Even seasoned and knowledgeable practitioners will find much that is new to them in this book. The volume covers topics in depth that other books in the field may not cover at all, such as the use of herbal and nutritional therapies for medical-psychiatric symptoms and syndromes, and the choice of questionnaires to supplement history-taking. It looks at old topics in a new way: The chapter on the physical examination applies psychometric considerations to the Babinski sign, describes the method and application of quantitative bedside olfactory testing, and discusses smartphone apps to improve the sensitivity of the examination. Psychiatric Care of the Medical Patient, 3rd Edition provides concepts and information to facilitate the dialogue between psychiatrists and general medical specialists - minimizing psychiatric jargon and speaking in the common language of caring and curious physicians.

The Iliad of Homer, Books XIII-XXIV (Volume 2)

By: Barry Nurcombe

“The people took the bones, enwrapped them with Soft purple robes, and laid them down within A golden urn, to place it in a hollow Kist of stone, and cover it above With close-set rocks and earth to make a mound. ...When they had raised the mound Of earth above the grave, they went back to The city and assembled for a splendid Banquet in the hall of Príamos. Thus were the funeral rites completed for Illustrious Héktōr, the horsetamer.” When the humiliated Akhilleús withdrew from battle, the Akhaians were on the verge of being defeated by the Trojans. However, in this second volume, when Pátroklos, Akhilleús’ beloved comrade, dies in battle, Akhilleús is enraged. Dressed in a divine panoply, he returns to the fray, defeats the Trojans, and slays their champion Héktōr, desecrating the corpse of his opponent so outrageously that the Gods are outraged. They arrange for King Príamos to be escorted across the battle lines to Akhilleús’ abode. There, touched by the old man’s grief and courage, Akhilleús breaks down and achieves redemption by returning Héktōr’s corpse to Troy for honorable burial. The Iliad ends with Héktōr’s funeral rites. This volume ends with Notes for Books XIII-XXIV, and Glossaries describing the characters and the gods.

The Iliad of Homer, Books I-XII (Volume 1)

By: Barry Nurcombe

“Sing, Goddess, of the wrath of Pēleús’ son Akhilleús, the accursed wrath that caused Akhaíans countless woes and hurled headlong To Hāḯdēs a host of heroes’ souls And left their bodies spoil for dogs and all The birds of carrion. The will of Zeús Was brought to pass from when Agamémnōn, The Lord of men, opposed the consummate Akhilleús. Which God was it that set the two At odds?” So begins the Íliad, Homer’s epic song about the invasion of Troy by a force of Greeks led by Agamémnōn, King of Mykḗnē. They are seeking revenge for the abduction from Spártē of Helénē, the most beautiful woman on earth, by Páris, Prince of Troy. The walls of Troy seem to be impregnable and the fortunes of the Greeks are further set back when their greatest warrior, the fleet-of-foot Akhilleús, falls out with King Agamémnōn and withdraws from the battle. The Íliad recounts what happens in the next fifty days at the beginning of the tenth and final year of the war. By the end of this first volume, the fortunes of the Greeks are at a low ebb. The Trojans are storming the Argive wall and breach it to pour through and fight close to the ships, though Akhilleus still refuses to join the battle. This new translation adheres closely to the original text, rendering it in iambic pentameter, with attention to the dramatic similes characteristic of Homer. A detailed Introduction is provided together with Notes for Books I-XII.
