Abstract
This book provides a comprehensive overview of the current academic literature on telepsychiatry and is also a unique opportunity to learn about experts' personal experiences of using real-time telepsychiatry to diagnose and manage patients. The importance of the Internet as a source of information and advice to both patients and doctors is given particular emphasis. There are also some interesting suggestions on how telemedicine might be financed in the future and in the developing world, e.g. through commercial online clinics and automated diagnosis.
