The field of early intervention in psychotic disorders has rapidly advanced in the past decade. Clinical practice is striving to incorporate the unfolding research findings and clinical innovations that are occurring on an international scale. This book presents the most comprehensive review of best practices written to date. Unfortunately, clinical practice guidelines often fail to make a significant impact because of adoption and implementation difficulties. This book assists widespread implementation by presenting views on best practises from around the world. A wide variety of contributors discuss their unique efforts at implementing the principles of care espoused in the Intervention Guide. These discussions are followed by a series of chapters on state-of-the-art applications of specific intervention issues by world leaders in the early psychosis field
