This book is the first truly complete book on sports psychiatry to appear in decades. The authors of each chapter are experts in this field and are world leaders of professional organizations related to it, including presidents and directors of the International Society of Sports Psychiatry and the Physical Exercise, Psychiatry and Sport Section of the World Psychiatric Association. Several of them have served as advisors to Olympic teams, and together they represent a degree of global expertise gathered in a book that is unprecedented. This book covers, in particular, four main categories of topics: Mental Health Challenges Faced by Athletes (including Substance Use Disorders, Doping, Exercise Addiction, Eating Disorders, Personality Disorders, Depression, Suicide, Concussion and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder). Treatment methods, psychosocial issues and the field of sports psychiatry (including work within the framework of a regular consultation of sports psychiatry, and the current state and challenges of sports psychiatry).
