An Unnecessary Death
Approximately one million people worldwide commit suicide each year, and at least ten times as many attempt suicide. A considerable number of these people are in contact with members of the healthcare sector, and encounters with suicidal individuals form a common part of the everyday work of many healthcare professionals. Originally published in 2001 by Martin Dunitz, Suicide: An unnecessary death examines the pharmacological, psychotherapeutic andpsychosocial measures adopted by psychiatrists, GPs, and other health-care staff, and emphasizes the need for a clearer psychodynamic understanding of the self if patients are to be successfully recognized, diagnosed
and treated.Drawing on the latest research by leading international experts in the field of suicidology, this new edition provides clinicians with a comprehensive summary of the latest research into suicide and its prevention.
