Get the Diagnosis Right: Assessment and Treatment Selection for Mental Disorders

In this remarkable book, Jerome Blackman allows all readers, from beginners through advanced analysts, to learn about the details of diagnosis of mental disturbance and specific recommendations for treatment. Get the Diagnosis Right amalgamates the most useful ideas from general psychiatry, cognitive psychology, and modern psychoanalytic theory into a compendium which serves as a helpful guide to those prescribing treatment for the mentally disturbed. It also serves a check for those people who are considering what type of mental health professional they should be consulting. Written in clear but not overly simplistic language, this book goes far beyond any of the DSMs and other diagnostic manuals.
