From reviews of Essential Psychopharmacology: The Prescriber's Guide (the parent volume) '… instead of a laundry list, Dr. Stahl presents what the clinician ought to be looking for - this is not your father's PDR (Physician's Desk Reference)! The clinical tips and pearls that are found in each entry are invaluable - not only are dosing guidelines provided, but also the author's educated and respected opinion regarding potential advantages and disadvantages of each drug. … a real bargain … The book's major strength is its readability and user friendliness. The art of psychopharmacology is finally given the space it deserves … This guidebook is an excellent source of information for the art of prescribing psychotropic medications and belongs in every clinician's library.' The Annals of Pharmacotherapy
