Book Description
The German psychiatrist Emil Kraepelin (1856 - 1926) is justly called the father of modern psychiatry. He was the first to identify dementia praecox (schizophrenia) and manic-depression, and he pioneered the use of drugs to treat mental illness. He was also joint discoverer of Alzheimer's disease - which he named after his collaborator, Dr Alois Alzheimer. Kraepelin presented these and other discoveries in successive editions of his Psychiatrie: Ein Lehrbuch (definitive 8th edition also now available from Thoemmes Press). Much of this gigantic textbook can only be read in the original German; but parts of it were translated into English, and they had a very profound influence on the development of world psychiatry for the rest of the 20th century.

Book Description
Excerpt from Dementia Praecox: A Monograph From time immemorial medicine has arranged its facts under as small a number of names designating that which struck the teachers of the day as essentials. These names or diseases had remained descriptive and traditional till Kahlbaum tried to get more definite nosological principles into them in 1863, without attaining success, on account of his heavy terminology. At the same time the old Graeco-Roman names were liberally readjusted by others, - Wahnsinn, paranoia, amentia, had been added by German and Austrian writers, and when Kraepelin started on his great nosological revolution, he found a much richer and far more accurately subdivided material in German psychiatry than was found in the Anglo-American contemporaries. Indeed Kraeplin found the new types too many, too one-sidedly symptomatic, or too exclusively etiological. His aim still was the formulation of types, but types representing real diseases. Kraepelin bends the facts of psychiatric observation to the concept of disease processes. His psychiatry works with the postulate that each case presents one of a relatively small number of disease entities with definite cause, course, and outcome. According to him, the assumption of transition forms is merely an admission of nosological cowardice. Each disease has its specific lesion; and a true clinical entity has its unity of cause, course, and outcome, and is necessarily the clinical picture of a unitary and specific histological process or condition (Nissl), with general paralysis as the paradigma. This is the bald expression of the dogma, impiessive and simple, but not altogether convincing or satisfying, especially when we come to his large group of dementia praecox.

Book Description
While most abnormal psychology texts seem to aim solely for breadth, the acclaimed Oxford Textbook of Psychopathology aims for depth, with a focus on adult disorders and special attention given to the personality disorders. Now in its third edition, it has established itself as an unparalleled guide for professionals and graduate students alike. Esteemed editors Paul H. Blaney, Robert F. Krueger, and the late Theodore Millon selected the most eminent researchers in abnormal psychology to cover all the major mental disorders, allowing them to discuss notable issues in the various pathologies which are their expertise. This third edition of the Oxford Textbook of Psychopathology is fully updated according to the DSM-5 and also reflects alternative, emerging perspectives in the field (e.g., the NIMH's Research Domain Criteria Initiative; RDoC). The Textbook exposes readers to exceptional scholarship, a history of psychopathology, the logic of the best approaches to current disorders, and an expert outlook on what researchers and mental health professionals will be facing in the years to come. With extensive coverage of personality disorders and issues related to classification and differential diagnosis, this volume will be exceptionally useful for all mental health workers, clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, and social workers, and as a textbook focused on understanding psychopathology in depth, as well as a valuable guide for graduate psychology students and psychiatric residents.
