Treating Suicidal Behavior: An Effective, Time-Limited Approach (Treatment Manuals for Practitioners series)

J Clin Psychiatry 2001;62(12):996-997

Article Abstract

From our regular book review column.

This 274-page volume, Treating Suicidal Behavior: An Effective, Time-Limited Approach, is a component of the Treatment Manuals for Practitioners series that is edited by David H. Barlow, Ph.D. Two of the coauthors, Drs. Rudd and Joiner, are academic psychologists; Dr. Rajab is a biostatistician. The stated goal of the book is to "provide an empirically supported treatment approach for suicidality that is specifically tailored to today’s managed care environment."

From the Editors

New Series The JCP Podcast A third-trimester blood test may identify who is at high risk for postpartum depression before symptoms start, opening the door to prevention instead of waiting for a crisis. The episode also unpacks why zuranolone and brexanolone are not “just benzodiazepines” — and why that mechanistic difference matters clinically.
