A collection of case accounts of real patients, edited to focus on information relevant to differential diagnosis. Each case is followed by a discussion of the differential diagnosis, made according to the diagnostic criteria in DSM-IV. The discussions include important diagnostic considerations, such as the rationale for making each particular diagnosis, other disorders to be considered in formulating each diagnosis, and, in some cases, recognition of diagnostic uncertainty because of inadequate information, ambiguity in the clinical features, or problems in the classification itself. Paper edition (675-9), $29.25. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
