Reviews

"Well written, and the overall organization is simple, straightforward, and easily comprehensible....This book should be a required standard text for each resident in training."--Doody's Health Sciences Book Review
"This work continues to be an intellectual challenge, a very good textbook, and an eminently readable compendium of clinical wisdom."--Annals of Clinical Psychiatry (on a previous edition)
"This is an updated, expanded version of a book which had already established a secure place among the best written, most informative, critically sound texts on psychiatric diagnosis....Obligatory reading for any serious student or worker in the field."--Journal of Nervous or Mental Diseases (on a previous edition)
"A workmanlike volume of basic psychiatry that condenses an enormous amount of information into a small place....One would have to read far and wide to unearth the same amount of information elsewhere....Each chapter is arranged so that history, epidemiology, clinical picture, natural history, complications, family studies, differential diagnosis, and clinical management for each condition are outlined in clear language."--The New England Journal of
Medicine (on a previous edition)
"Twenty-two years after first being published, this significant book continues its role as an important work in the area of psychiatric diagnosis. It offers conciseness, clarity, and simplicity while providing a quick overview of the most essential core of psyuchiatric disorders."--Journal of the American Medical Association
