Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Paperback. Aggression: Clinical Features and Treatment Across theDiagnostic Spectrum addresses the role aggression plays inintermittent explosive disorder (IED), referred to as "primary aggression,"and in a host of other psychiatric disordersfrom autism to posttraumaticstress. Aggression is a well-studied, multidimensional phenomenon that maybe parsed by cognition, affect, and behavior. Occurring as primaryaggression and as a symptom of other psychiatric disorders, aggression isboth common and destructiveof property, relationships, and the socialorder. The editors were instrumental in the development of the DSMclassification for IED, and the book discusses the evolution of thediagnostic criteria from the 1950s to the current DSM-5. This long-rangeperspective informs the volume and provides a firm foundation for theclinical content, which is case-based and accessible. Moreover, each chapteris consistent in structure, moving from phenomenology to psychobiology toclinical approach and treatment. The book emphasizes that although abnormalpsychobiological systems, including neurochemistry and neural circuits, mayincrease the risk of behavioral aggression, influences associated withgenetics, epigenetics, and environmental forces are also extremelyimportant, and these are discussed in-depth in each chapter.Chaptertopics were selected for their clinical relevance: Two chapters are devoted to primary aggression, first distinguishingform (verbal and physical) and type (direct or indirect); next, delineatingthe phenomenology, psychobiology, and comorbidities; and then exploringcurrent treatment options, both psychopharmacological andpsychotherapeutic. Because aggression represents the most commonreason for referral to psychiatric care in youth, most frequently in thecontext of disruptive behavioral disorders, includingattention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, the book devotes a chapter tothese disorders, emphasizing prevention, assessment, and treatment (e.g.,self-regulation, skill-building, improved support systems, andmedication). Aggression and anger may play a role in the onset andmaintenance of eating disorders, complicating clinical presentation andinfluencing prognosis and treatment. The chapter on eating disordersaddresses aggression, both self- and other-directed, and provides measureswith sound psychometric properties for assessing eating disorderpsychopathology and aggression. The chapter on anxiety disordershighlights the prevalence of aggression, hostility, irritability, and angerin patients with these disorders, noting that these individuals may be atincreased risk due to genetic sensitivity to stress. The role of aggressionin social anxiety disorder, panic disorder, and generalized anxiety disorderis explored in-depth, and current treatment recommendations arediscussed. In addition to carefully chosen clinical vignettes, thebook employs chapter-ending summaries and key clinical points and is repletewith tables presenting information such as rating scales and summaries ofpharmacological management. Cogent, compelling, and clinically rich,Aggression: Clinical Features and Treatment Across the DiagnosticSpectrum examines aggression in its myriad forms and manifestationswhile offering cutting-edge guidance on assessment and treatment. Based on the latest research, Aggression: ClinicalFeatures and Treatment Across the Diagnostic Spectrum is designed toaid mental health practitioners in identifying and treating aggression indiverse patient presentations.
