This targeted approach, along with her conversational writing style, clearly addresses the most pertinent topics in the care settings in which most LPNs work. Also included in this updated edition: completely revised and updated coverage of psychopharmaceuticals; integration of DSM-IV-TR into all discussions; enhanced coverage of palliative and restorative care; new coverage on facing the reality of terrorism integrated throughout relevant chapters; and more detailed exploration of religious and cultural beliefs and their impact on mental health and treatment."--BOOK JACKET UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0513/2005014728.html ER -
