Article Abstract

From our regular book review column.

If you are going to spend several hundred dollars on a textbook of psychiatry, you are entitled to expect a few things for your money. The third edition of the American Psychiatric Press textbook delivers a lot and is worth serious consideration for anyone who feels the need for a comprehensive reference book (which is about 2 years old when it hits the market.)
