"This book provides the first comprehensive and systematic review of current research evidence on the prevalence of physical diseases in people with schizophrenia, a disorder afflicting approximately 1% of the global population, and a group with mortality rates twice as high as the general population. The evidence presented will support programmes aiming to increase awareness of these problems and improve treatment. This is the first in a series of books addressing an issue emerging as a priority in the mental health field: the timely and proper recognition of physical health problems in people with mental disorders. It should be read by policy makers, service managers, mental health professionals and general practitioners."--BOOK JACKET.
