Images in Psychiatry: Canada

Resource Type

Book

Description

"In recent years, the impact of deindustrialization, technological advances, and escalating costs of care has brought about immense changes in Canadian psychiatric practice. In addition, Canada?like most other countries?faces the challenge of providing accessible, effective, humane, and cost-efficient health care in the midst of downsizing, restrictions, and cutbacks. Images in Psychiatry: Canada outlines the historical development of psychiatry in Canada; highlights various aspects of current psychiatric practice, both in general and in highly specialized areas; and traces research development foci of Canadian endeavor. The contributors, a group of nationally and internationally recognized practitioners, provide not only an overview of the current situation but also informed predictions concerning the future of Canadian psychiatry."--(www.appi.org)
