Description
CBS PUBLICATION Introductory Textbook Of Psychiatry 6Th Edition (Dsm-5 Edition) by Donald W Black
The Introductory Textbook of Psychiatry provides a comprehensive
introduction to the field both for students new to psychiatry
and for students who are studying for their board exams. This
authoritative sixth edition has been thoroughly updated to reflect
advances since the previous edition. Chief among these was the
publication of DSM-5®, which necessitated a complete
restructuring of the text, the reformulation of many diagnostic
categories, the addition of new disorders, and the elimination of
others. DSM-5® provides a frame for the text’s many illuminating
clinical vignettes, which in turn bring diagnosis, assessment, and
treatment to vivid life. Other features, such as clinical points, selfassessment
questions, and an exhaustive glossary of terms, add to
the educational value and enhance learning.
