Excellent choice! If you buy this item you will acquire the basics of psychopharmacology psychiatry students need. I am a second year postgraduate student and found it very helpful, concise and updated. It presents the major indications, therapeutic uses, side effects, and mechanisms of action for every drug. The tables give you an easy way to compare each medication caracteristics and the book offers the facts that will help us choose the best drug that fits our patients needs. Its format let us carry it with us everywhere so we can take a quick look and review the information anytime we need it. I highly recommend it!

I've read all editions of this book and I'm really impressed. Rosenbaum, et. al. are masters of the art of psychopharmacology. This book covers almost all areas relevant to practicing psychiatrists. Despite its breadth, you can finish reading the book in a couple of days. Finally, this book is an excellent resource for the certification exam in Advanced Psychopharmacology offered by the American Society of Clinical Psychopharmacology (ASCP).

Just recently, I've read its 6th edition. So easy and fun to digest! Despite the handbook's small size, the amount of information has been truly remarkable. I highly recommend it for busy, and of course not-so-busy, clinicians preparing for ABPN's psychiatry certification exam.
