I purchased this book for my Abnormal Psychology class (undergraduate). It is excellent! I love the layout and the actual case studies included in each chapter. For class or not, I am glad to have this book. Highly recommend.

I ordered this book for my Psychopathologies class, and I absolutely love it! Each type of disorder is broken down into chapters, for example, one chapter covers all the Somatoform and Dissociative Disorders. Then, each chapter is broken down into the individual disorders. There are case studies, diagnostic criteria per the DSM-IV-TR, colored pictures, and current research regarding each of the disorders. The book also covers, briefly, the treatment process for these disorders. The treatment section focuses more on therapy rather than medications, but it does state what type of medications are generally prescribed. There are visual aids as well to help those who can't learn by straight reading. I think this is a valuable book and worth the money I spent on it. I will definitely be keeping this book!

A fascinating subject, covered in a clear and detailed manner. One of the better psychology textbooks I've used. I just sold mine and I'm sad to be parting with it.

This book is fabulous. I am using it for my Anormal Psychology course right now. The book is so explicit and it describes the symptoms to look for in a person in order to diagnose and to help that individual. It is a great book. I would use it as an reference.
