The main objective of the present book is to present a clear and profound review of the role of PD on suicide behavior. Data on PDs different of BPD and antisocial PD are scarce. The contributors are all clinicians and researchers focused on the study of suicide. The book has two well-differentiated parts: the first one is a brief introduction to some theoretical issues that are considered basic to set the ground when approaching the second part, which is devoted to research on the influence of personality, and particularly, PDs on suicidal behavior. In addition to the extensive review carried out, the authors also present also data on some of the research that their research group and others are carrying out in this area. Some of them have a clear path into the daily activity of clinicians.
