A New Year Dawns: What Will it Bring?
By Jan Fawcett, MD
Welcome to 2009! Our first issue of Psychiatric Annals for the new year features some of joys of aging – design flaws that show up as we age, including depression and cardiovascular disease, as well as Parkinson’s disease, psychosis in Alzheimer’s disease, and late-onset alcohol dependence. Each article makes useful points about the onset and management of these common conditions.
