Product Description
The last 6 years has seen many advances in our knowledge of illnesses. The DSM-IV-TRV spans the bridge between DSM- IVV and DSM-VV to ensur e that the most relevant new information since the DSM- IVV literature review in 1992 was incorporated and to enhance the educational value. Specifically, new information on associated features, including asso ciated laboratory and physical findings, has been added for many of th e disorders. Sections on prevalence, gender/age/culture, course, and familial pattern have also been revised to reflect recent research fin dings. More comprehensive differential diagnoses have been incorporat ed for many of the disorders.

 Great! April 6, 2008
This book got to probably less than a week after I ordered it, so shipping time was great. It was in perfect condition, just as promised.
DSM Review February 8, 2008
What can I say? Anyone that is interested in counseling or psychology must have this book.
Seems overly technical, even for psych December 18, 2007
Psych is difficult to understand in it's complex levels. This book goes to some extremes, where it could have been easier to just simplify it. Some "DSM-IV" for dummies books do exactly that, making the whole thing a lot easier to comprehend and use. Overall, it's the standard knowledge base needed for any psychologist/health clinician.
Must have December 2, 2007
It's required to have for school psych. students and practitioners. It's pretty easy to use. Great info.
 Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders DSM-IV-TR Fourth Edition (Text Revision) November 14, 2007
One of the most, if not the most, debated publication in the field of psychology. Aka (by some) the clinian's bible. If you consider diagnosis and essential part of therapy, you would already have this book. If not, it (I consider) the DSM still provides useful guidelines in terms of treating patients with similar symptomologies, and the like. I find that the Diagnostic Statement is useful in summarizing an individuals circumstances, even without providing a diganosis. If you are not working, or studying in the field, you will most likely find this publication a bit dry and technical.
