Résumé

In a style remarkable for its clarity, wit, and practicality, the book explains DSM-IV, presents its diagnostic categories, and illuminates them with psychodynamic, behavioral, social, and biological theories. Avoiding jargon, it describes the genetics, epidemiology, neurochemistry, and psychopharmacology of mental disorders. Guidelines for treatment are given for each disorder. Amply illustrated with case vignettes, the book stresses the practical.
