Mental health and illness of the elderly
Mental health and illness of the elderly[electronic resource] /edited by Helen Chiu, Kenneth Shulman. - Singapore :Springer Singapore :2017. - xx, 618 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - Mental health and illness worldwide,2511-8323. - Mental health and illness worldwide..

Tentative Table of Contents -- Challenges of ageing populations around the world -- Mental health problems of the elderly -- Epidemiology of mental disorders - cross cultural comparison -- Neurobiology of dementia -- Psychopathology of depression / dementia/ delirium/ delusional disorder -- Co-morbidities with physical illnesses -- Pharmacotherapy -- Psychological therapies -- Early detection of mental disorders program -- Elderly services from different countries -- Community care -- Health economics of service -- Caregivers program -- Dementia prevention -- Elderly suicide - Suicide prevention.

This book consolidates current knowledge in the field and discusses psychiatric disorders among the elderly, while bridging the gap between clinical practice and the socio-cultural contexts. The book is particularly important in the face of rapidly changing conditions globally and challenges such as migration, war and violence, diminishing physical health due to ageing and their impact on the mental health of elderly. Longevity is a great gift of medical sciences and modern health care and since the benefit of longevity comes with specific mental health issues of the elderly, this book responds to the heightened need to understand and address the mental health challenges of the elderly.
