Description
The Comprehensive Handbook of Personality and Psychopathology presents the foundations of major theories of personality. Volume 1 describes specialized theoretical models and demonstrates the impact that personality has on functioning. Volumes 2 and 3 describe the major classifications of psychological disorders in adults and children as well as the most popular treatment modalities. Throughout the work, a team of eminent researchers and clinicians present data reflecting the influence of personality and psychological problems on an individual's ability to interact with family and peers, and perform in the work or school environment.
Reviews / Votes
"The organization of each volume is standard and well structured for review and research. Wiley's reference volumes have almost invariably been well received and reviewed. This set is no exception to the norm, and authoritatively addresses the relationships between personality and mental disorders in both the adult and the child. At the same time, each volume can stand on its own merit as a psychology handbook that shows the relationships?positive and negative?to psychopathology."
