"While most abnormal psychology texts aim solely for magnitude, the Oxford Textbook of Psychopathology aims for both scope and depth. Its authors expose the reader to the most influential perspectives, the most crucial theoretical issues, and the most promising empirical findings for each major mental disorder. In addition to synthesizing our current knowledge and understanding of adult psychopathology, the editors and contributors provide expertise on diagnosis and treatment." "This book is appropriate for all mental health workers, clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, and social workers. And as a volume focused on understanding underlying psychopathology with extensive coverage of personality disorders and issues related to classification and differential diagnosis, it is a valuable tool for graduate students in the mental health disciplines."--Jacket.
