Concise Guide to Anxiety Disorders summarizes the latest research on anxiety disorders and translates it into practical treatment strategies for the best clinical outcomes. It runs the gamut of anxiety-related illnesses: panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, social phobia, and specific phobias. The discussion of each disorder includes information on etiology, diagnosis and differential diagnosis, course and prognosis, biological and psychological theories, medications and interventional treatments, psychotherapeutic treatments, and combined treatments.
