Learning DSM-5-TR by Case Example

Engaging case studies drawn from the real-world practice of a diverse group of
experts bring DSM-5-TRto life in this exhaustive new volume. Designed to
familiarize undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate students in psychology,
psychiatry, social work, counseling, and psychiatric nursing with the diagnosis
of psychopathology, this guide is equally useful for experienced clinicians
seeking to improve their understanding of the new concepts and terminology in
DSM-5-TR.

Organized according to the order of the 19 diagnostic groupings
as they appear in DSM-5-TR, this book includes at least one case for each unique
mental disorder listed in DSM-5-TR. In each richly detailed chapter, readers
will find:

An overview of the manifestation of the various disorders
included in the corresponding disorder class A table summarizing key
characteristics of each individual disorder Comprehensive sections on the
individual disorders that describe hallmark features, prevalence data, clinical
course, and commonly occurring disorders, among other topics

Multiple
cases are included for more than one-third of the DSM disorders to illustrate
heterogeneity in the presentation. For example, there are six different cases of
Bipolar I Disorder; these include cases with mood-congruent and mood-incongruent
psychotic features, with catatonia, with rapid cycling, with development during
treatment with an antidepressant, and with late-life onset.

Distinctive
to this edition are four new, cutting-edge cases (illustrating Attenuated
Psychosis Syndrome, Internet Gaming Disorder, Olfactory Reference Disorder, and
Compulsive Sexual Behavior Disorder) drawn from the "Conditions for Further
Study" chapter in DSM-5-TR and from the current edition of the World Health
Organization's International Classification of Diseases, 11th
revision.

The book concludes with an alphabetical index of case names and
a comprehensive index of diagnoses with their related cases for ease of
reference. Unmatched in its scope and detail, Learning DSM-5-TR by Case Example
is an essential resource for all those looking to translate the latest
diagnostic concepts and criteria to real-world practice.
