Book Description
When it was first published in 1980, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Third Edition—univer-sally known as DSM-III—embodied a radical new method for identifying psychiatric illness. Kirk and Kutchins challenge the general understanding about the research data and the pro-cess that led to the peer acceptance of DSM-III. Their original and controversial reconstruction of that moment concen-trates on how a small group of researchers interpreted their findings about a specific problem—psychiatric reliability—to promote their beliefs about mental illness and to challenge the then-dominant Freudian paradigm.

Book Description
In collaboration with representatives of American Academy of Family Physicians American Academy of Pediatrics American Board of Family Practice American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists American College of Physicians American Medical Association American Psychiatric Association Association of Departments of Family Medicine Society of General Internal Medicine Society of Teachers of Family Medicine "DSM--IV(R)--PC, International Version" is identical in content to the "DSM--IV(R)--PC" except for its use of "International Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems," Tenth Revision (ICD-10), diagnostic codes in place of the ICD-9-CM codes. Primary care physicians are often the first or only medical professionals to see patients with psychiatric and mental disorders. Until now, they have lacked a diagnostic tool geared to the primary care setting. The "DSM--IV(R)--PC, International Version" is the first manual of mental disorders created specifically for use by primary care physicians. Developed as a collaborative effort between psychiatric and primary care organizations, this concise, user-friendly manual is a "must have" resource for every primary care physician. Unlike other versions of DSM-IV, this manual is compatible with how the physician manages the primary care visit. To aid the primary care physician's diagnosis, "DSM--IV(R)--PC, International Version" focuses on common conditions, such as anxiety, depression, and substance abuse. It is epidemiologically oriented, with the most common and most important disorders listed first. This unique publication includes conditions that are common in primary care but that are not as well characterized inDSM-IV. Using an algorithmic format, "DSM--IV(R)--PC, International Version" assists practitioners in moving from presenting symptoms to diagnosis. Symptoms and features that discriminate among disorders are emphasized. Students and residents will also benefit from this new format, making this text an outstanding curriculum tool for medical education.

Book Description
This book chronicles how American psychiatry went from its psychoanalytic heyday in the 1940s and '50s, through the virulent anti-psychiatry of the 1960s and '70s, into the late 20th-century descriptive, criteria-grounded model of mental disorders.
