This timely book provides detailed information regarding the latest treatment for psychiatric disorders among the growing population of older adults. The World Health Organization reports that between 2015 and 2050, the proportion of the world’s older adults (≥ 60 years) will double from about 12% to almost 22% of the total population, and it is estimated that approximately 20% of older adults have a diagnosable psychiatric disorder. Many of these older adults are prescribed psychotropic medications, but these treatments can result in significant functional decline, cognitive decline, cerebrovascular adverse events, and death.
