Psychopathology – the study of abnormal mental states – is a foundational discipline of psychiatry that many find formidable to master. Since its first publication in 1988, Sims’ Symptoms in the Mind has become the leading introductory textbook in this crucial area, providing the conceptual backbone needed by every psychiatrist in training. This essential resource defines and explains the main symptoms and syndromes of mental illness encountered in clinical practice.
Now in its seventh edition, the text has been fully revised and updated by renowned psychiatry professor Femi Oyebode. It offers a masterful introduction to this challenging field, intellectually stimulating readers while supporting their learning journey.
With a combination of accessible text and engaging audiovisual materials available in the online ebook, this is the standard postgraduate text for psychiatric trainees. It also serves as a valuable reference for academics, clinical psychiatrists, psychologists, allied health professionals, and researchers.
