Great companion, but room for improvement.:
It is a great companion to the DSM. However,when the 5th edition comes out, it would be helpful if the editors included a multiaxial diagnosis for each client.
Great review:
This is a great book. It is set up so that all the cases are sort of mixed up so, if you read it straight through, you get a lot of variety not just 20 MDD cases in a row which can be kind of boring. However, if you wish there is an index in the back so if you want to just read cases on Bipolar I it will tell you what pages they are all on. I do wish that they put in the ICD-9 code for the disorders that they talked about. They reference the page number in the DSM4-TR book but then you have to got to that... more info
