Now in its seventh edition, this bestselling guide is organized along the lines of DSM-5® and has been updated to reflect changes to the manual, including new medications and therapies. Rigorous in scope yet accessible and conversational in tone, it offers a summary of the DSM-5® diagnostic system, the neurobiological basis of psychiatry, legal issues, psychiatric emergencies, and more. Initially developed for medical students and beginning residents, this guide is also a valuable reference for nurse practitioners, physician assistants, social workers, and psychologists.
