No complaints.:

Book was a bit beaten up, but it was ordered as "Acceptable" so I wasn't expecting it to be pristine. Delivery was a bit slow, but I didn't pay for expedited so I can't complain.

DSM IV TR:

This book is amazing. If you have any interest in mental disorders this is a must own. I'm in the field and I gave my old DSM IV to my mom. She recently commented on how easy it is to read, even for a lay person.

fast service:

Received this faster than expected. Front cover was somewhat bent from shipping, but the book is otherwise in great condition.

Pages missing, others falling out.:

Not sure why this has happened twice with this book (2 different sellers), but pages are falling out in the center & even a few pages are missing. I am attending a class where all the other students do not have a problem with their book.
