Synopsis

Modern psychiatric practice requires a strong understanding of neurology. Many neurological disorders present with psychiatric symptoms, while psychiatric conditions often involve complex brain-behavior interactions. Clinical Neurology for Psychiatrists is a practical, evidence-based guide that helps clinicians recognize, evaluate, and manage neurological conditions encountered in psychiatric practice.

Designed to bridge the gap between neurology and psychiatry, this comprehensive resource presents essential neurological concepts in a clear, clinically relevant format. It emphasizes accurate diagnosis, evidence-based management, and multidisciplinary collaboration to improve patient outcomes across a wide range of neuropsychiatric conditions.

Inside this book, you will discover:

• Foundations of clinical neurology for psychiatric practice.

• Brain anatomy, neurophysiology, and brain-behavior relationships.

• Practical neurological examination and diagnostic techniques.

• Evidence-based approaches to evaluating cognitive impairment, seizures, movement disorders, headaches, sleep disorders, and neurodegenerative diseases.

• Recognition of neurological disorders that commonly mimic or accompany psychiatric illness.

• Interpretation of neuroimaging, EEG, laboratory investigations, cerebrospinal fluid analysis, and neuropsychological testing.

• Integrated treatment strategies that combine neurological and psychiatric care.

• Practical diagnostic algorithms, clinical pearls, and current evidence-based recommendations.

Ideal for psychiatrists, psychiatry residents, neurologists, neuropsychiatrists, medical students, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and other healthcare professionals, this book serves as both a reliable learning resource and a practical clinical reference.

Whether caring for patients with complex neuropsychiatric presentations or strengthening your neurological diagnostic skills, Clinical Neurology for Psychiatrists provides the knowledge and clinical guidance needed to deliver confident, comprehensive, and patient-centered care.
