• excellent but advanced
  I agree wholeheartedly with the product description and what the reviewers said. As a master's student in psychology, this is the most advanced text in psychology I have ever read. It requires patience, determination, and i would say an underlying love of the subject. however, if you want to know about the disorders and research on them, this is the book.

• Not a light read...
  The previous edition of this book was required reading for a Developmental Psychopathology course I completed as part of my graduate training program in educational psychology. Another more "reader-friendly" text was also required; however, I found myself referencing this book often as it is probably the definitive source of empirically based information in this subject area. I highly recommend this book for graduate students or professionals accustomed to reviewing research literature. Do not purchase this... more info

• provokes aversion to reading
  I had it for a class with the most exciting, wonderful, engaging professor a student could dream of. This book was an unbearable drag. This book's format made it nearly impossible to read, impossible to enjoy. I hope the new edition will be revised for (I admit it) "computer-era" students who don't know how to read a densely written book with minimalistic print and no illustrations. They still might make excellent psychotherapists (I hope) who shouldn't bypass this rather informative and significant book.

• came as ordered
  The book came in a timely manner and arrived in new condition exactly as I ordered it. Very pleased.
