Sinopsis:
A series of case studies are presented which explore the psychological reasons why a patient fakes illness. The aim of the volume is to provide clinical practitioners and other health care professionals with guidelines on the diagnosis and treatment of those with factitious disorders.
Reseña del editor: Recounts the case histories of factitious disorder patients who make themselves ill as a way of gaining emotional fulfillment and recognition. They take playing sick to pathological extremes, profoundly affecting their lives as well as the lives of those who support them. In these pages, readers will find a group of cases so bizarre that they challenge the imagination and, at times, medical knowledge.
