The Wiley Handbook of Anxiety Disorders

This state-of-the-art Handbook on the research and treatment of anxiety and related disorders is the most clinically-oriented Handbook currently available. It offers a truly international approach, encompassing a broad network of researchers and covering issues of global -- not just Western -- relevance. Divided into two volumes, the first reflects the state of the art of theory and research in the field; the second volume focuses primarily on clinical applications. Volume 1 covers various aspects related to theory and research into anxiety disorders, including epidemiology, course, classification according to DSM-5, and major etiological approaches. Disorder-specific chapters provide in-depth information on each anxiety disorder as well as number of anxiety-related problems classified in other categories, including PTSD, OCD, sexual anxiety, and body dysmorphic disorders. Volume 2 presents the very latest treatments for anxiety disorders. Chapters cover the most recent research findings in the areas, as well as clinically relevant information including brief case vignettes. In addition to established treatments, new and innovative approaches are covered, including cognitive bias modification, virtual reality exposure therapy, deep brain stimulation and the use of cognitive enhancers.
