Asthe population ages, increasing numbers of older people require the attention and services of mental health professionals. Despite their prevalence, however, mental health problems in this population often go undiagnosed and therefore untreated. This textbook offers medical students and professionals the information they need to care for older people with mental disorders.

Drs. Donna Cohen and Carl Eisdorfer, two internationally recognized experts in geriatric mental health, provide a comprehensive framework within which students and practitioners alike can address the salient issues of the field. These include the biopsychosocial aging processes, specific pathologies prevalent in later life, social issues common to the elderly, the delivery of care in various settings, and the economic policies affecting services for older people.

The signal strength of this book lies in its integrated approach, an approach that emphasizes the philosophy and principles of caring for older people along with clinical practices and issues. From this broader perspective, the authors describe the many factors that influence the lives, health, and well-being of older patients and their caregivers, making this an ideal text for psychiatrists, psychologists, nurses, and social workers.

A manual that provides a solid grounding in the theoretical and practical aspects of the care of the elderly mentally ill... Every clinician working directly in the field of old age psychiatry will have something to gain from it.

"Toni's writing style gives the reader a similar experience to being in a live class. I devoured each page and could hear Toni's voice as she passionately shared Integrated Iridology concepts. I'm so inspired and excited about this new edition with updated research and high quality images. Each chapter is a treasure trove of information about physical, mental and emotional layers of iridology. The use of arrows and commentary effectively brings the images to life. Toni's inclusion of herbs, lifestyle advice and life lessons, makes this book an invaluable resource to any student of natural therapies.

Throughout the book Toni uses positive language to empower practitioners and clients alike. She teaches that words can be medicine or a poison; that how we describe what we see in the eyes to our clients is of paramount importance. She allows eyes tell their own story rather than trying to make them fit into a personal belief system. 'How to do an Iris Assessment' is packed full of useful information to assist you to develop your own system of analysis and communication. She simplifies the process into manageable chunks that eventually become second nature to avid practitioners.

Toni is a true pioneer in the research and advancement of Iridology. I sincerely hope that this book is embraced by people all around the world, from those with an early interest in Iridology to the advanced Iridologist. It is surely written in such a way that it can be enjoyed by both."

"This book is a valuable reference to the advanced iridologist who would like to clarify a sign or learn some new iris signs. Toni has presented her own research in this field showing signs never before discovered. The age old questions about iris change have been thoroughly addressed. She includes an explanation of the emotional links between organs and mind, making this text book a treasure of "Integrated Iridology". I thoroughly recommend this text to all students and practitioners of Iridology".

"I am sure that all practitioners of the 'healing arts' will greatly benefit from Toni's book and I personally see it becoming a 'necessary' text for all those seeking to study, apply or teach iridology. I commend this text to all those interested in the study of Iridology and congratulate Toni on her achievement in producing such an outstanding resource".

"The world has long needed a precise and practical Iridology reference. Toni Miller's book fulfills this need. It goes beyond introductory concepts and shows that accurate iris diagnosis is much more than just a sum of its markings. Toni deals fearlessly with some of the old myths that have held iridology back including iris structural changes, healing lines and emphasis on reversing pigmentation. Her section on psycho-neuro-immunology is outstanding. I am thrilled that this excellent book is the result of her considerable commitment to international iridology. It is a culmination of extraordinarily in-depth knowledge and her highly developed intuition, proven correct by clinical experience for which she is famous. I hope her book will be widely read and open-mindedly investigated by her peers, her many students and by the public."

"Ms Miller has integrated the teachings of many of the world's greatest iridologists and actively questioned myths that have held back this insight into the person's health. As a clinician and iridologist I appreciate the offering to the profession is not just an academic appraisal, but a successful practitioner with 30 years of practice and 25 years as a lecturer passing on their knowledge to the peer and novice alike. 'The Integrated Iridology Textbook' will fill the void that lecturers have been seeking for a comprehensive and current text that covers the assessment of the eye. Iridology is an assessment technique which views the pupil, iris and sclera, which have all been documented in a clear and concise manner by the author. If you have studied Iridology and not had the joy of working with constitutional iridology then this book is a must.
