  • "This highly practical book shows that inexplicable, intractable, or sudden mental health problems (as well as perplexing somatic complaints) may be masking serious medical disorders - from leading causes of death such as heart disease, cancer, and stroke, to less prevalent conditions including head trauma, epilepsy, and multiple sclerosis. Helping clinicians to understand the psychological effects of a wide range of disorders, and to recognize when a medical referral is advisable, James Morrison provides a much-needed reference and diagnostic tool for anyone involved in mental health care."
