Product Description
by Ronald Milestone (Author)
Neuromind is aimed to mental health providers of all disciplines, including psychiatrists, psychologists, and social workers. Readers interested in the brain and mental health may also find it useful.
Neuromind combines current brain research with clinical situations giving specific clinical examples. This unique combination emphasizes the brain's interactions with the social system.
Neuromind defines brain information processes, the specific brain pathways that communicate different messages, and how these combine to adapt to society. And also how the community organizes brain activity.
The book offers a different approach emphasizing mental health, not diagnoses of illnesses with a different approach to treatment. Final chapters suggest practical clinical applications, but it is not a self-help guide.
Dr. Ron Milestone has over 50 years of clinical experience in mental health, beginning with his residency at Yale Department of Psychiatry, and a background in neuroscience at the University of Pennsylvania.
