Using this integrative technique, students comprehend that a single impact infrequently causes psychological disorders, but rather rooted in the interplay among numerous factors: biological, psychological, cultural, social, familial, and even political. A conversational writing manner, continuous pedagogy, and genuine case portraits – 95 percent from the authors’ personal case records – offer a realistic environment for the scientific discoveries of the ebook. Furthermore, these characteristics guarantee that readers never overlook the reality that real individuals are at the core of the DSM-IV-TR criteria, the theories, and the exploration.
