This volume presents current ideas and scientific findings on key topics in the field of suicidology. Chapters from noted authorities address a broad range of psychological, social, and biological factors in suicidal behavior and report on advances in prevention and treatment. Topics covered include adolescent suicide, psychopharmacological treatment for at-risk patients, cultural beliefs and behaviors, and cognitive risk factors. Also addressed are the scientific basis of clinical practice in suicidology, suicidality in children and older adults, and the debates around physician-assisted death. Designed for both professionals and students, the book demonstrates the role of high-quality research in promoting a fuller understanding of suicidal behavior and facilitating the development of effective therapeutic interventions.
