Customer Reviews:

This Guide Will Help You Tame "The Beast"

By Rocco B. Rubino "Rocco R." - November 28, 2006

Whether you are a graduate student, intern, novice clinician,or a veteran, you know from experience that the DSM-IV-TR is a beast of a book in terms of navigation.

Dr. Fauman has provided a cogent guide to help you tame this beast. What I find most helpful are the clinical vignettes and the way he attempts to tease out over-lapping, and/or mutually exclusive diagnoses.

3.Definitions--succinct explantations of terms used in the DSM-IV-TR
4.Synopses and Diagnostic Prototypes of the Individual Disorders--includes some more juicy vignettes to personify the individual diagnoses
5.Necessary Clinical Information--includes the information needed to be obtained during the clinical... read more
