This book highlights the methods of clinical examination and describes concisely the various signs and symptoms in psychiatry. Substantial up-to-date knowledge and skills in clinical examination and descriptive psychopathology are essential prerequisites for good clinical practice. The book provides a practical and clinical approach to the examination of patients, focusing on the fundamentals and deliberately avoiding complexity. It is concise, lucid, comprehensive and up-to-date. It was written primarily for postgraduate doctors in psychiatry and novices in the specialty. The clinical skills and knowledge in psychopathology that this book will provide for postgraduate psychiatry trainees may serve as the fundamental building blocks for their clinical practice, and will also be beneficial for other doctors, medical graduate students and mental health professionals, helping them to get to know the basics in psychiatry, deepen their understanding of its relevance and endorse psychiatry as a division in medicine.
