| Annotation | Schizophrenia which has its onset in middle age or later life is a controversial area of psychiatry, with much debate and disagreement about cut-off ages, diagnostic criteria and terminology. This book reviews current international knowledge about late onset schizophrenia-like states; examines heterogeneity, gender, brain maturation and ageing, diagnosis, and treatment; presents a consensus statement on diagnosis and terminology; and outlines the future research directions.
