 "A Textbook You Don't Want to Return" 2008-12-14
By Ren Borrelli (State College, PA)
I must say that the Oxford Textbook of Psychopathology is a great reference. As a student, I have written numerous papers with the help of this textbook.

 "The Gold Standard" 2000-07-15
By Lyle B. Forehand (rural California)
It's a shame this book is a special order. Everyone I have shown the book to, has gone gah-gah (this is a word?) The scholastic and academic quality are consistent with the best of the Oxford Press. The clarity and parsimony of the explication is beautiful. The data are current and insightful. Anyone in clinical practice would benefit from this book. The diagnoses used are those from DSM-IV, but the insight into patient behavior may be timeless. Although as an edited book it is subject to inter-author variability, I found none; rather a consistent voice of compassion for patients, tempered by a scientific mind.
