Abnormal Psychology: The Science and Treatment of Psychological Disorders, 15th Edition DSM-5-TR Update Thoroughly updated to reflect the publication of the DSM-5-TR in March 2022, Abnormal Psychology, 15th Edition, carefully balances research and clinical application while engaging learners in the complex challenges faced by clinicians and scientists every day. With each new edition, the authors update and optimize the book to enhance its scholarly and pedagogical features and provide a critical understanding of key concepts in a style that is accessible, stimulating, and inclusive of clinical and theoretical concerns. The fifteenth edition features a new integrated approach that shines a light on the root causes and most effective treatments of psychopathologies from multiple, complementary perspectives. Introductory chapters give students all the background they need to understand the theories, methods, and principles used in later chapters. The importance of stigma and mental illness is discussed throughout Abnormal Psychology , and never is this more important than now, when many social ills are too easily blamed on mental illness. Review: Good content - Great content. I needed this book for class. Please note it is only the inside of the book. Need to have a separate three ring binder to put the pages in. Bonus, pages are already hole punched. However one page did rip when I was flipping through too fast. Review: Great psychology book - I needed this for an abnormal psychology class, and it was a great textbook. I wish it was binded and not loose leaf, but it’s a good book. Anyone wanting to learn more about abnormal psychology should get this book

Inaccurate, Misleading, and Wrong
I understand that most people will be purchasing this book with the inability to to choose whether or not they want to use it. It will probably be assigned by a university. However, as someone who has practiced mental health for many years, and as a current graduate student, I can tell you that this book is very inaccurate, misleading, and sites sources so old that they are unaccredited. You can't publish a valid textbook in 2021 with references to the 1960-1990. The standard is 5-10 years depending on the topic. Furthermore, the book begins by explaining what mental health practitioners exist; but it completely fails to mention counselors as a legitimate profession. Instead it attempts to justify that psychiatrists, psychologists, and social workers are the only mental health prsctitioners. This simply is not true. Counselors have existed since World War 1, it's not a new field. The statistics and references are so grossely wrong. Particularly those relating to violence. The final chapter on laws is grossly misinformed as well. They're teaching a lawsuit waiting to happen. My recommendations for this book would be to take away what information you need for it with regards to school testing, and then forget it
