The DSM-IV Made Easy is perfect for new clinicians and/or students. It not only indcludes all the information you need from the DSM-IV, but it includes vignettes, and even practice cases at the end of the book. It's a great resource, and much easier to skim through when making a diagnosis choice. I definitely recommend this product.
My experience with this vendor is positive.I'll not only likely do more business with them but will recommend them to others.Uk
This is a great book. The only downfall is that my copy is a bit outdated. I plan on buying the latest version. It is very helpful in better understanding DSM IV.
The important thing about this book is the real world examples of the disorders. The DSM-IV Made Easy is just that, a guide to using the DSM that helps the therapist come to a diagnosis. It does not replace the DSM as other reviewers seem to be indicating. These alone make the book extremely helpful, as do the explanations of the diagnoses given. I highly recommend this book to incoming graduate students and interns.
So I don't have alot of good to say about it. I would rather we used the real DSM but it was required for class so have to go along. i don't find it as easy to use as the real thing is and the real thing is cheaper too. Sorry. DSM-IV Made Easy: The Clinician's Guide to Diagnosis
