Michael B. First, M.D. and Andrew E. Skodol, M.D. discuss their book, "Learning DSM-5® by Case Example". With at least one case presentation for each of the mental disorders catalogued in DSM-5—and multiple cases for nearly half of the disorders—"Learning DSM-5® by Case Example" has been meticulously designed to aid practitioners and students of all levels in psychology, psychiatry, social work, counseling, and psychiatric nursing develop internalized prototypes of DSM-5 disorders by first describing each disorder in relatable terms and subsequently illustrating how these symptom constellations manifest in real-life settings using clinical case material. With definitions of potentially unfamiliar medical and psychiatric terms, "Learning DSM-5® by Case Example" is an accessible resource for readers of all disciplines. And because it guides the reader through the organizational structure of DSM-5, it is also an ideal reference for courses on psychopathology or abnormal psychology.
