Review An Atlas of Depression (The Encyclopedia of Visual Medicine Series) / Informa Healthcare:Although one of the most common mental disorders, depression can be an obscure illness. People keep their depression secret, doctors and patients have a hard time recognizing it, the cause is unknown, treatment is viewed with suspicion, and other conditions are given higher priority. However, once you know the right questions to ask and the correct manner in which to ask them, diagnosis and treatment is easy. An Atlas of Depression presents a thorough graphical review of the diagnosis, management, and treatment of affective or "mood" disorders. Authors Baldwin and Birtwistle explore the overlap of anxiety and the depressive syndromes in community, primary, and secondary care settings. They cover the symptoms of depressive disorders such as low mood, reduced energy, a loss of interest or enjoyment, poor concentration, reduced self-confidence, guilty thoughts, pessimism, thoughts of suicide, disturbed sleep, and altered appetite. The book contains approximately 120 color illustrations, an appendix of useful links, bibliographical references, and an index. The clear and concise text puts the focus on the photographs and illustrations. These features make An Atlas of Depression a key reference for all medical professionals, from primary care physician to resident psychiatrist, who see and treat depressed patients. When diagnosing and treating depressed patients, this is the resource you will refer to time and again.

Review Encyclopedia of Evolution / Facts on File:Evolutionary science is not only one of the greatest breakthroughs of modern science, but also an area that draws a great deal of interest on the part of students and the reading public. Perhaps more than any other scientific area, evolutionary science has caused us all to question what we are, where we came from, and how we relate to the rest of the universe. "Encyclopedia of Evolution" contains more than 200 entries that span modern evolutionary science and the history of its development. This comprehensive volume clarifies many common misconceptions about evolution. For example, many people have grown up being told that the fossil record does not demonstrate an evolutionary pattern, and that there are many "missing links. " In fact, most of these "missing links" have been found, and their modern representatives are often still alive today. The biographical entries represent evolutionary scientists within the United States who have had and continue to have a major impact on the broad outline of evolutionary science. The biographies chosen reflect the viewpoints of scientists working within the United States. Five essays that explore interesting questions resulting from studies in evolutionary science are included as well. The appendix consists of a summary of Charles Darwin's "The Origin of Species", which is widely considered to be the foundational work of evolutionary science and one of the most important books in human history.
