Description
This text gives a balanced view of abnormal psychology, combining current perspectives with cutting-edge research. It deals with the most tenable therapies and looks at the research on every disorder. Issues of diversity are consistently discussed in every chapter. A "groups at risk" section in each disorder chapter integrates differences in prevalence by gender, race, socio-economic status and other forms of diversity. These sections have been significantly updated and expanded. A new chapter on biological/neuroscience perspective devotes thorough, in-depth coverage to this key area of research, and new "prevention" boxes integrate this crucial topic throughout the text.
