Book Synopsis Koro by : Arabinda Narayan Chowdhury
Download or read book Koro written by Arabinda Narayan Chowdhury and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-01 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a definitive account of koro, a topic of long-standing interest in the field of cultural psychiatry in which the patient displays a fear of the genitals shrinking and retracting. Written by Professor A.N. Chowdhury, a leading expert in the field, it provides a comprehensive overview of the cultural, historical and clinical significance of the condition that includes both cutting-edge critique and an analysis of research and accounts from the previous 120 years published literature. The book begins by outlining the definition, etymology of the term, and clinical features of koro as a culture-bound syndrome, and contextualizes the concept with reference to its historical origins and local experience in Southeast Asia, and its subsequent widespread occurrence in South Asia. It also critically examines the concept of culture-bound disorder and the development of the terminology, such as cultural concepts of distress, which is the term that is currently used in the DSM-5. Subsequent chapters elaborate the cultural context of koro in Chinese and South Asian cultures, including cultural symbolic analysis of associations with animals (fox and turtle) and phallic imagery based on troubling self-perceived aspects of body image that is central to the concept. The second section of the book offers a comprehensive, global literature review, before addressing the current status and relevance of koro, clinically relevant questions of risk assessment and forensic issues, and research methodology. This landmark work will provide a unique resource for clinicians and researchers working in cultural psychiatry, cultural psychology, anthropology, medical sociology, social work and psychosexual medicine.

Book Synopsis What is “KORO/ Genital Retraction Syndrome.”? A Comprehensive Overview. by : Dr. Hakim. K. Saboowala
Download or read book What is “KORO/ Genital Retraction Syndrome.”? A Comprehensive Overview. written by Dr. Hakim. K. Saboowala and published by Dr.Hakim Saboowala. This book was released on with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is “KORO/ Genital Retraction Syndrome.”? mA Comprehensive Overview. Koro is the fear of the genitals shrinking and retracting into the body. Koro is sometimes referred to as genital retraction syndrome. Females occasionally suffer from a variation of koro in which they believe that their nipples are retracting. Interestingly, koro often appears as an epidemic in which multiple cases are reported simultaneously within a specific geographic area. Cases of this fear have been reported around the world in Asia, Africa, Europe, and the U.S. The conclusion is that the psychological disappearance of the penis is a universal syndrome that was described recently in Asia and Africa and already in Medieval Europe. An attempt has been made in this Booklet to present a summarizing overview on ethnomedical aspects of koro (in Chinese called suoyang ), the panic anxiety state in which affected males believe that the penis is shrinking and/or retracting, and perhaps disappearing. …Dr. H.

Book Synopsis Unusual and Rare Psychological Disorders by : Brian A. Sharpless
Download or read book Unusual and Rare Psychological Disorders written by Brian A. Sharpless and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many fascinating and important psychological disorders are either omitted from our current diagnostic systems or rarely covered during graduate or medical training. As a result, most mental health students and trainees are never taught to identify, diagnose, or treat them. This lack of attention has real-world consequences not only for patients, but for basic science as well. Unusual and Rare Psychological Disorders collects and synthesizes the scientific and clinical literatures for 21 lesser-known conditions. The coverage is broad, ranging from exploding head syndrome and koro to body integrity identity disorder and persistent genital arousal disorder. All chapters follow a uniform structure and introduce each disorder with a vivid clinical vignette. After discussing the historical and cultural contexts for the disorder, authors describe the typical symptoms, associated features, current role in diagnostic systems (if any), and etiologies. Clinically relevant information on assessment and differential diagnosis is also provided. Finally, authors review the treatment options and suggest future directions for research. This unique and engaging volume will not only be a useful resource for researchers and clinicians who already possess expertise in the more well-known manifestations of psychopathology, but it will also be of interest to students and trainees in the mental health professions.
