2 out of 5 stars Mixed review   February 29, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This text did not work well for our graduate level course. There was far too much emphasis on tedious details concerning prevalence, specifiers, and the kinds of facts one seeks from an encyclopedia. What most chapters lacked was a more conceptual, model- or theory-driven examination of the factors involved in the onset, development, and maintenance of the disorders. To my mind these are far more useful and valuable issues to focus on in a graduate psychopathology course, yet the bulk of the text was filled with far less relevant material. In fact it appears that nearly half the pages comprised references rather than text, so despite the bulk of the book there is not nearly enough useful material between the covers.


5 out of 5 stars Very Informative   January 13, 2008
This book is really good. I read more than 3/4 of it for class and it wasn't a hard nor boring read. I read the DSM IV TR before being assigned this book and it answered or spoke about many of the reactions I had to the DSM.


1 out of 5 stars unhappy with seller   November 21, 2007

I never orderded this expensive book yet received it none-theless from Warehouse Deals, a subsidiary of Amazon. Each referred me back to the other when I tried to resolve the problem. Bottom line: I didn't read the book but I was very unahppy with the service.


4 out of 5 stars Excellent text, but lacks plenty of case studies!   June 18, 2007
This is an excellent introductory text for a graduate-level abnormal or even upper-level undergraduate-level abnormal psychology course. However, my major complaint with the book; besides, it being too bulky and heavy, is the simple fact that it doesn't include enough case studies. Granted, it's sprinkled with a few case studies, here and there, but it focuses mailny on research and gives an excellent discussion on the DSM-IV. This is an excellent book to be used in conjuction with the DSM-IV-TR; however, as I've stated earlier, the book needs to be made more thinly with the text still intact and the book needs case studies for each chapter, which it currently doesn't in this 4th edition.

Bottom-line: Good book, but bulky and lacks a plethora of case studies; hence, 4 stars!




3 out of 5 stars passable reference text but book itself is irritating and awkward to handle   April 15, 2007
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

i own the fourth edition and have looked at the new fifth.
it's an acceptable survey reference text, but one soon needs to move on to other texts for further discussion or clinical analysis.
one thing that seriously bothered me about the fourth edition and is maintained in the fifth is the ridiculously thick paper used. though the text is about 5/600 pages, i guess, the paper is really thick and the boards are as well. thus the text is nearly 3 inches wide, heavy and awkward. easing up on these production aspects could still produce a text of longevity. it's irritating to carry around or handle, aside from a waste of paper. whoever did the packaging wasn't doing their job. just an awkward irritating text to use, and of course to use it is why one has it. for this one reason, i won't be buying the fifth edition
