| Editor: John M. Herrera (Eli Lilly and Company, Indianapolis ); Editor: William B. Lawson (Indiana Univ. School of Medicine, Indianapolis); Editor: John J. Sramek (California Clinical Trials, Beverly Hills ) |
| Cross Cultural Psychiatry addresses the question of why different populations respond differently to standard pharmacological treatments by looking not only at the biological mechanisms that underlie differential response but also at the cultural elements; at the illness and its context, and at the patientclinician relationship. In doing so, the volume will provide:*A unique contribution to this field*Excellent coverage of the relevant issues, such as the clinical implications of differential drug response*Both the practical and theoretical angles of the issues discussed*Detailed investigations of differential responses to individual illnesses, for example schizophrenia and affective disorderWritten by outstanding researchers in the field, Cross Cultural Psychiatry will provide essential information for psychiatrists, psychologists, psychopharmacologists and members of the pharmaceutical industry.
