 pass your board exam! January 30, 2000

I really loved this book! it was a great tool to help pass my board exam (ACP/social work), i studied it faithfully and didn't even bother studying the DSM IV manual. this book is well written and VERY easy to comprehend difficult diagnosis. i recommend it strongly if you are entering the psychiatric field and you are not a psychiatrist!
Better than DSM! April 12, 1998
96 out of 98 found this review helpful
The author has done an excellent job of taking the DSM diagnostic criteria and adding tips, additional information, and commentary. Perhaps, most importantly, he devotes most of the book to those diagnoses that a clinician is most likely to encounter in the "real world" while giving relatively little attention to the more esoteric disorders. I especially liked his advice on how to do decide which diagnosis is the more likely to be accurate. The book also contains vignettes to demonstrate how the appropriate information can be elicited to do an accurate diagnosis. I have found that this book is not only more useful than the DSM; I no longer need the DSM.
