Читать книгу Chronotherapeutics for Affective Disorders - M. Terman - Страница 10

This Manual is written for psychiatrists, psychologists, primary care physicians, nurses, and all persons involved in treating patients with major depression (unipolar and bipolar) in a clinical or ambulatory setting. The aim is first, to present the theory behind these non-pharmaceutical chronobiological treatments; second, to document the evidence that they are efficacious in controlled trials, and third, to provide a handbook for step-by-step implementation of these therapies in everyday practice. The theoretical chapters can be skipped, and the interventions still be effectively applied. Selected references focus on new reviews and clinically relevant studies that will lead the reader to the original research.
