Manic-Depressive Illness: Bipolar Disorders and Recurrent Depression
|
Oxford University Press, USA. New Please note that deliveries to addresses in the UK and Europe will be in 4-14 business days. Other countries should refer to Alibris standard times. The revolution in psychiatry that began in earnest in the 1960s led to dramatic advances in the understanding and treatment of manic-depressive illness. Hailed as the most outstanding book in the biomedical sciences when it was originally published in 1990, Manic-Depressive Illness was thefirst to survey this massive body of evidence comprehensively and to assess its meaning for both clinician and scientist. It also vividly portrayed the experience of manic-depressive illness from the perspective of patients, their doctors, and researchers. Encompassing an understanding about theillness as Kraeplin conceived of it-about its cyclical course and about the essential unity of its bipolar and recurrent unipolar forms-the book has become the definitive work on the topic, revered by both specialists and nonspecialists alike. Now, in this magnificent second edition, Drs. Frederick Goodwin and Kay Redfield Jamison bring their unique contribution to mental health science into the 21st century. In collaboration with a team of other leading scientists, a collaboration designed to preserve the unified voice of the twoauthors, they exhaustively review the biological and genetic literature that has dominated the field in recent years and incorporate cutting-edge research conducted since publication of the first edition. They also update their surveys of psychological and epidemiological evidence, as well as thatpertaining to diagnostic issues, course, and outcome, and they offer practical guidelines for differential diagnosis and clinical management. The medical treatment of manic and depressive episodes is described, strategies for preventing future episodes are given in detail, and psychotherapeuticissues common in this illness are considered. Special emphasis is given to fostering compliance with medication regimens and treating pa

Circle Press, 1990. New This mint, limited edition, ( 3, 000 ) HARDBACK, half-sized edition ( of the 150, 1969 unbound edition ) is in pristine condition because it is in a box. The cover is brilliant scarlet cloth with a gilt design on the front cover and gilt lettering to the spine. The book size is 6.75” w x 9” h with 70 pristine pages on beautiful high quality paper. The designs are wonderful and would make beautiful gift. ISBN 0901380652. “ The cut paper screenprint technique he used here was employed on his first major book, Chaucer's PROLOGUE TO THE CANTERBURY TALES, which launched Circle Press in 1967. The Prologue received a second printing in 1978, by which time Circle Press had extended its activities and involved a number of other well known artists such as Allan Reynolds, Ian Tyson, Norman Ackroyd, Arthur Boyd, John Furnival, Michael Kidner, Stanley Hayter, Tom Phillips and Michael Peel. During the seventies the press produced spectacular editions of various major texts and with Brigit Skiold's CHIMES by Rossetti Circle Press was awarded the coveted Golden Eagle Award at the Nice Festival du Livre. King had now developed a complete work-shop capable of handling work of immense complexity such as his own BLUEBEARD'S CASTLE in 1972 which is one of the seminal cross-bred works in English pop-up book design and the various more ascetic three-dimensional folding alphabets. King's wife, the sculptor Willow Legge, produced three books of delicate relief sculpture and John Christie's highly inventive photographically derived images for a series of books, culminated in an award at the Leipzig Print Fair for his production of BETWEEN THE DANCERS with verse by Ken Smith. King's favourite contemporary collaborator is the poet Roy Fisher, responsible for the BLUEBEARD text and various others. Their NEIGHBOURS WE'LL NOT PART TONIGHT and The LEFT HANDED PUNCH are more decorative and riotous than usual. The mutual high-spirits of artist and poet abet and exhort ach other to

First trade edition of this intriguing photo-essay on the juke joints of the Mississippi Delta country, signed by Imes on the title page, with 60 color plates.

"Growing up white in the segregated South of the 1950s, I was only vaguely aware of another culture, another world that existed in the midst of my own… In the late sixties, the veil began to part, and I started to see the richness and diversity of a culture that until then had been hidden from me." Preceded by a limited edition of 126 copies. Fine condition.
