[humanser] DSM 4 and 5 Bookshare

Fri Sep 25 03:17:45 UTC 2015

Well, Jonathan, it depends or should I say, it's complicated.

If you want to learn how the DSM-IV is different from the DSM-5
If you want to learn how the DSM-5 was created
If you want to study the book for a class
If you want to get a quick guide for determining diagnosis
If you want a good readThere are

I suggest that you download them all and find the one you find best meets 
your needs.  I have read several and none have been bad.

Hello all,
I have been trying to follow this thread and I have noticed some of
the emails are missing of the answers that have been given on this
thread. So I will post my question onto this thread: Of all of the DSM
5 related books on Bookshare, which is the most comprehensive? I know
that this question can be abstract to each of our styles, but I would
love some opinions and suggestions.

Best
