Description
This briefer version of Barlow/Durand's text was created specifically for those professors who were drawn to the integrative approach but wanted a bit less detail. It includes in approximately 550 pages a consistent organizational structure that makes the material easy to learn, real-life cases are integrated into the flow of each chapter, together with a mix of clinical and scientific approaches. A variety of new built-in study aids are designed to make the briefer version easier to learn from and easier to use. The authors' integrative approach helps students understand how each disorder is determined by multiple forces: biological, psychological, cultural, social, familial, and even political. To achieve this version, the authors worked with users and non-users alike who suggested how to collapse chapters and simplify the presentation.
