Contains 16 contributions partially derived from a 1992 meeting held under the auspices of the Italian Psychiatric Association. Following an overview of chronic depressions, chapters cover current official diagnostic concepts and their classical roots; the classic, now officially discarded construct of neurotic depression, present-day neurasthenias and atypical depressions; the unofficial rubrics of hysteroid dysphoria and recurrent brief depressions; and issues of chronicity of depressives and conduct disorders arising in childhood.
