"This Sixth Edition of Case Studies in Abnormal Psychology conveys the subtleties of the therapeutic process in an engaging and vivid way. Based on actual clinical experiences, these 23 in-depth cases take mental disorders from the realm of theory into the reality of human lives. These cases illustrate the different ways clinicians think about their work, the challenging issues they often face, and how they can help clients cope with life problems ranging from psychotic disorders to various disorders of childhood and aging."--BOOK JACKET.
