DSM-5-TR Made Easy: The Clinician's Guide to Diagnosis

Ask any clinical supervisor which book makes the DSM finally click for students and they'll probably name this one. In DSM-5-TR Made Easy, James Morrison, MD, takes every diagnosis in the manual and explains it the way a good mentor would – in plain English, with a quick summary of the essential features and a real-sounding patient to show you what it looks like in the room.

There are more than 130 case vignettes here, and they're the heart of the book. Morrison walks you through each one, shows you how he weighs the evidence, and lands on a diagnosis you can follow. The whole thing is updated for DSM-5-TR, including Prolonged Grief Disorder and the revised criteria sets.
