Reviews / Votes

"This book is highly recommended for everyone interested in the diagnostics of personality pathology and the implementation in clinical practice of the DSM-5 alternative model for personality disorders in particular. It is edited and written by an outstanding selection of practitioners and academics showing how the DSM-5 trait model can support and advance clinicians' work."

Filip De Fruyt, professor of differential psychology and personality assessment, Ghent University, Belgium This proposed book is likely to attract the interest of every thinking psychologist who is involved with personality assessment, whether as a teacher, researcher or practitioner and a recommended reading in courses related to personality assessment-which are an integral part of all graduate programs in clinical psychology. At the professional level, this book is likely to be highly praised in the assessment community, widely read, and frequently referenced in the literature. Irving Weiner, Professor, South Florida University

The idea of a more comprehensive view of personality and enhancing the understanding of the concept of personality is quite valuable. I think the book is worthy of publication. It can provide much needed education and understanding about the concept of personality within a more current and forward context. Hadas Pade, Alliant University.
