Great Book
A beautifully written book examining mental illness from a wide range of psychodynamic thoeries. It is a book I know I'll refer back to for years to come. The writers present the complexities of mental illness in a detailed and accessable manner. If you work in the mental health field as a psychiatrist, psychologist, counselor, or social worker this book is a must for your library.

A Truly Superlative Work ( jazzbo251 )
After a concise introduction, the authors describe in detail Drive Theory, Structural Theory, Ego Psychology, Psychosocial Ego Development, Object Relations Theory, The Theory of Self Psychology, and the Interpersonal School. This provides a solid foundation for the rest of the book, which moves to a chapter on Race and Culture, then Women. After this, a variety of psychopathologies are described in detail, with great attention to how ethnicity, culture, and gender play a role in the therapeutic process. The book contains a variety of clinical vignettes, is written intelligently, but without too much jargon, and is laid out concisely and clearly. I'm incredibly excited about this book, and know that I will be referring to it for a long time.

Good introduction to biopsychosocial assessment ( bethturner1 )
The authors all teach at the Smith College School for Social Work, and this book developed from their lectures on biopsychosocial theories of development. Their students report that of all the books purchased during their graduate career, this is the one they refer back to most often. Well-chosen cases illuminate the theories, and issues of culture and gender are nicely integrated.
