New edition (first, 1984) of a resource textbook containing 32 overview contributions arranged in six sections, beginning with basic issues classification of abnormal behavior, methodological problems in clinical diagnosis, the cultural context, biological variables, and genetics and the problem of causality. Contributors were asked to develop comprehensive, objective overviews rather than to describe narrowly focused research or theoretical biases; coverage encompasses the full spectrum of disorders.
