FRONT:HANDBOOK OF THE CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY OF AGEINGSecond EditionEdited by Bob Woods and Linda ClareSPINE:HANDBOOK OF THE CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY OF AGEINGSecond EditionEdited by Bob Woods and Linda ClareBACK:Across the world, the proportion of the population who are older people continues to grow. In the UK, over the past thirty years, the largest percentage growth in population was among those aged 85 and over. Currently, 1.2 million people in the UK are in this age group, and 16% of the population are over 65.The ageing population presents clinical psychologists with new challenges, as this client group has its own specific mental health and psychological issues. This has been reflected in the increasing amount of research on areas such as psychosis in older age, the assessment and treatment of dementia, and the application of CBT to older clients. The Handbook of the Clinical Psychology of Aging reviews this research and offers clinicians an authoritative and practical guide to working with older people. Over a third of the chapters in this second edition are on topics that were not well–developed enough to be covered in depth in the first edition, indicating the progress being made in this field.With a particular focus on professional practice, this book covers:Psychological disorders in later lifeClient assessment, including neuropsychological assessmentClinical interventions, including CBT, psychodynamic and emotion–focused approachesEdited by an internationally renowned team, this book will be essential reading for clinical psychologists and psychiatrists as well as nurses, occupational therapists and social workers.Contributors:Dawn Adams, UKKate Allan, UKKaren Berman, AustraliaGita E.
