The book is structured for maximum learning, convenience, and utility, with an impressive array of features.
Section I provides background on BPD, including the myths that sometimes discourage clinicians from treating these patients and that hamper the effective treatment of the disorder.
Section II, the GPM Manual, provides a condensed and clear description of the most essential and specific GPM interventions that clinicians can learn from and use in everyday practice.
Section III, the GPM Workbook, offers case vignettes which reference chapters from the manual. Each vignette has a number of “decision points where alternative interventions are proposed and discussed.
To further facilitate learning, a set of nine interactions found in a series of online video demonstrations. Here, readers can see in vivo illustrations of the GPM model in practice.
Finally, a set of appendices provides critical information, such as a comparison of GPM with other evidence-based treatments of BPD, scaling risk and response strategies, and family guidelines.
Designed to be a basic case management text for all hospital, outpatient clinic, or office-based psychiatrists or mental health professionals who assume primary responsibility for the treatment of those with BPD, the Handbook of Good Psychiatric Management for Borderline Personality Disorder constitutes a breakthrough in the treatment of these often misunderstood patients.

État-limite (Psychiatrie)

Covering the range of clinical presentations, treatments, and levels of care, Borderline Personality Disorder: A Clinical Guide, Second Edition, provides a comprehensive guide to the diagnosis and treatment of borderline personality disorder (BPD). The second edition includes new research about BPD s relationship to other disorders and up-to-date descriptions of empirically validated treatments, including cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic approaches. Compelling new research also indicates a much better prognosis for BPD than previously known.

A pioneer in the field, author John Gunderson, M.D., director of the Borderline Personality Disorder Center at McLean Hospital, draws from nearly 40 years of his own research and experience. This background is now complemented by the added clinical and research experience of Paul Links, M.D. The guide begins with a clear and specific definition of BPD and provides an in-depth description of multiple modalities of treatment, including pharmacotherapy, family therapy, and cognitive-behavioral therapies. Gunderson outlines therapeutic approaches for multiple settings, such as hospitalization, partial hospitalization programs, and outpatient care. Complementing the well-organized treatment guide are a series of informative sidebars, recommending specific do s and don ts for disclosing the diagnosis, discussing medications, meeting with families, and managing suicidality.

A synthesis of theory and practical examples, Borderline Personality Disorder: A Clinical Guide, Second Edition, provides a thorough and practical manual for any clinician working with BPD patients.

The studies and reviews contained in this book point to heterogeneity in the pathogenesis of BPD. Moreover, these studies indicate that the etiology of this disorder, when examined carefully, moves one into a systems model. Not the initial etiologic models, derived by clinicians, that emphasized pathological early interactions with parents nor the second generation of models, offered by academicians, about a genetically controlled temperament or a biological vulnerability nor the third model, which emphasizes past traumatic stressors, is capable by itself of unlocking the etiologic puzzle. The studies on traumatic impact of early separations, the modeling effects of emotionally and impulsivity distrubed parents, and the effects of sustained abuse join the studies on family pedigrees in pointing to heterogeneous backgrounds of borderline patients. There are multiple factors that ca help shape the boderline patient's personality, but none are likely to be very specific and they are likely to have additive effects.
