Very Detailed
It is a very good book very well detailed and specific. However, it is a bit overwhelming if there are other thick books assigned in the course. Since this is one of 2 other books we have to read for Psychopathology (course for Social Work Graduate students) it is big read!
Necessary knowledge
This condensed easy-to-read volume provides useful necessary contemporary knowledge about the brain,current drugs and therapies. I highly recommend it as an adjunct quickie-reference along-side the dsm
Very Helpful
I just satarted working, leading group therapy and this product has helped greatly in Diagnosis and writing notes.
