With two new lead authors, the sixth edition of Psychiatric Diagnosis continues its thirty-five year tradition of providing a clear, critical and well-documented overview of major psychiatric syndromes, with minimum inclusion of clunky theory or clinical judgment. Medical students and psychiatric residents will continue to find this new edition to be a unique guide to the field-a volume that concisely yet comprehensively dissects psychiatric disorders. Several new chapters are introduced, including: Anxiety Disorders, Post-traumatic Stress Disorder, and Borderline Personality Disorder. As in all previous editions, the sixth edition includes up-to-date information currently available on psychiatric diagnosis, analyzed by two emerging great minds in the field of psychiatry. This newly updated, popular text for medical students and psychiatric residents is a thorough yet concise guide to the diagnosis and natural history of psychiatric disorders. No other text provides such a lucid, well-documented, and critically sound overview of the major syndromes in psychiatry.
