"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
