    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Mental health professionals routinely make treatment decisions without necessarily having an overarching perspective about optimal next steps. This important new book provides them with reader-friendly, pragmatic strategies to approach clinical problems as testable hypotheses. It discusses how to apply concepts based on decision analytic theory using risk-benefit analyses, contingency planning, measurement-based care, shared decision making, pharmacogenetics, disease staging, and machine learning. Readers will learn how these tools can help them craft optimal pharmacological and psychosocial interventions tailored to the needs of an individual patient. The book covers topics such as diagnostic ambiguity, interview technique, applying statistical concepts to individual patients, artificial intelligence, and managing high-risk, treatment-resistant, or demanding and difficult patients. Valuable clinical vignettes are featured throughout the book to illustrate common dilemmas and scenarios where the relative merits of competing treatment options invite a more iterative than definitive approach. For all healthcare professionals who prescribe psychotropic medications.

    'In this book, Drs Joseph Goldberg and Stephen Stahl, two well-respected psychiatrists with expertise in mood disorders and psychopharmacology, clarify the thinking that goes into the provision of personalized medicine. They cogently illustrate the many dilemmas psychiatrists face in their everyday practices: how to weigh clinical observations with the scientific literature guiding expert treatment without losing sight of individual patients' histories, objectives, and preferences. Clinical vignettes bring to life the shared physician/patient decision-making that is key to successful personalized treatment. The reader comes away knowing what a seasoned clinician would do under the complex situations that often appear in practice but are not always discussed in treatment guidelines. This is a must-read for new or experienced clinicians who seek to improve their practices by collaborating with and meeting the needs of their individual patients.' David J. Miklowitz,, Ph.D., Distinguished Professor of Psychiatry and Behavior Sciences, UCLA School of Medicine, Los Angeles
