Description
This fifth and final volume of the series aims at covering areas not so far included in the series, together with new findings, with implications for future directions in research. The first section deals with issues surrounding diagnosis, beginning with consideration of the unitary concepts of neurotic disorder, in the light of the relationship between anxiety and depressive disorders. The book also gives a balanced and clear review of the difficult subject of comorbidity of anxiety and depression.
