Excellent, informative, and utterly lacking in a few places
Stahl's Essential Psychopharmacology is an excellent,informative tome on current medications.
That being said, the book utterly lacks any information on the differences in responses to these drugs along ethnic diversity lines, or gender differences, or interactions with commonly used herbs or supplements.
The topic of diversity and supplement usage is extremely relevant in today's world and knowledge of the these subjects will only increase our clients' comfort.
