August 2026
he National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) estimates that 50–70 million Americans have sleep disorders, and nearly 1 in 3 people do not regularly get the recommended amount of uninterrupted sleep. Yet funding for sleep research—and the number of young investigators pursuing careers in the field—have not kept pace with the magnitude of the problem. That's where the Textbook of Sleep and Circadian Medicine comes in. Designed primarily for psychiatrists, psychologists, psychiatry residents, and other trainees, it is also broad enough to serve as an indispensable reference for clinicians across all medical specialties. The volume demonstrates how common sleep disorders, such as insomnia, sleep-related breathing disorders, and circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorders, are classified across diagnostic systems such as DSM and ICD as well as the International Classification of Sleep Disorders (ICSD). It is truly international in scope, with contributors from around the world and coverage of diagnostic tools and treatments used across different countries.

Postpartum Problem Focused Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, 1e

August 2026
The postpartum period is a high-risk time for new mothers potentially developing anxiety and depression, as well as a variety of behavioral and interpersonal difficulties involving their babies, partners, and family. Although a range of treatments are available, including psychotherapies, psychosocial interventions, and medications, each has limitations in addressing the complex challenges posed by postpartum difficulties. Many women also face significant barriers to accessing quality mental health care during this crucial period. Recognizing the need for further development and research on psychodynamic approaches to postpartum anxiety, depression, and other mental health difficulties, the authors of this volume introduce postpartum problem-focused psychodynamic psychotherapy (PPFPP). PPFPP specifically targets the symptoms and other difficulties faced by postpartum women, including behavioral and interpersonal issues. This treatment is an adaptation of problem-focused psychodynamic psychotherapy specifically to the postpartum time period.

Mental Axioms and Lived Experience, 1e

We humans contain multitudes. We do not have an internal world; we have many internal worlds. Time, circumstance, and the maturational processes will alter those worlds as we move through the life cycle. When we come for psychoanalysis, we will inevitably enact axioms from the many differing worlds inhabited by the self. The assumed identifies three interrelated unconscious phenomena. First, the self's erroneous assumption that consciousness comprehends the stream of unconscious contents passing through it in the here and now. Second, mental "constellations”, forms of memory that collect into a dense inner object, so that when the self thinks about one aspect of the constellation, the entirety feels as if it is there. Third, those forms of knowledge derived entirely from the "unthought known": the knowledge that arrives out of actions and interactions. This cluster of unconscious assumptions are crucial to human thinking and behavior. Therefore, identifying this realm offers useful perspectives on the self and on clinical practice to enable analytical work in these areas. When the assumed is weakened or breaks down, we are witness to psychotic processes, and the restoration of mental well-being is a crucial priority and must precede the search for meanings. Mental Axioms and Lived Experience: On Character and the Assumed opens vital new perspectives to expand psychoanalytic thinking and understanding of the individual, society, and human nature. This makes it essential reading for practising clinicians, trainees, academics, and those of us interested in the complexities of the human mind.
Truth in a Time of Disinformation, 1e
ArundaleKarnac Books Limited
320 pages
ISBN: 9781800134713
August 2026
In an age where certainty has dissolved into opinion, and falsehood often travels faster than fact, Truth in a Time of Disinformation asks one of the most urgent questions of our era: what has become of truth, and how might psychoanalysis help us to find our way back to it? From Plato’s forms to postmodern relativism, the book traces the long, complex evolution of humankind’s relationship with truth – its beauty, its necessity, and its fragility. Today, this ancient pursuit faces unprecedented threat as narcissism, power, and digital distortion corrode our shared sense of reality. The psychoanalytic lens offers a unique response: an exploration of how inner truth – our unconscious phantasies, denials, and projections – shapes both the personal and the political fabric of the world we inhabit. At once a meditation on civilisation’s current crisis and a testament to psychoanalysis as a discipline grounded in truth-seeking, this book argues that the nourishment of truth – both emotional and intellectual – is essential for freedom, democracy, and psychic integrity.

Few topics in psychiatry over the past few years have generated as much curiosity and excitement among clinicians and laypeople as the use of psychedelics. For mental health professionals, psychedelics offer an opportunity to expand existing treatment options and to explore new ones that have the potential to change neuroplasticity and neuroconnectivity. For patients, they offer the hope of relief from illnesses that have not responded adequately to traditional treatments. When approaching the use of psychedelics in treatment, it is important to separate science from sensationalism. Expert-vetted and rigorously researched, Psychedelics: Transforming Psychiatry delivers an authoritative review of the current knowledge and evidence for the use of psychedelics in practice.
