Great Condition, Comprehensive Text

This 2 volume text came to me in great condition. You cant beat the price- If you are debating between the 9th and 8th edition, go for the 8th and save about $300. Besides, the DSM-V will be out soon rendering both editions "obsolete" as far as following DSM structure. Sure the 8th edition is missing a few of the newer pharmacological agents; but, again, save some money. Great text.... maybe too much information. Invaluable reference.

the bible for the psychiatrist

If you are in psychiatry, then you know that this is the basic textbook of psychiatry training. If you are a medical student (unless you are going into psychiatry), this book is to comprehensive as a reference, and I strongly recommend the 10th edition synopsis book, which itself is around 1500 pages. This book has everything in it, and great tables to boot. I don't find it overwehlming to read as well. Though it may explain a lot of history behind a diagnosis and diffent changes throughout the course of it, it does not come off as being an "overwordy" text, like many comprehensive textbooks can be. It does not leave me with the "what did I just read, i need to re-read that" sense. So this is a good investment for the psychiatrist, and an absolute investment for any resident. This book, when actually used, will allow you to pass the boards.

Great product

This CD is very easy to navigate and it holds the whole 2-volume text of Kaplan and Sadock's textbook. The textbook is the smartest and most coplete book that I ever encounted in murky field of Psych. As for myself, it is much easier to scroll the computer screen than glean into such heavy printed manual as K & S's.

An astonishing textbook for a demanding occupation

This textbook is definitly the GOLD STANDARD concerning the everyday learning and practice of psychiatry . The huge sum of persons involved in its making gives it the credibility other textbooks lack . Every section going from neural sciences to ethic problems going thru psychopharmacology and child psychiatry has been thouroughly discussed with a simple , clear and precise manner . Every graduate in psychiatry ( as myself ) should get his hands on this book . It's a MUST ...

An amazing, Comprehensive, and usefull tool for psychiatry.

If you are a therapist, psychologist, psychiatris, or just love to learn about psychiatry, this is an amazing reference book set. It is an encyclopedia on psychiatry. I used this set of books in my classes for my masters degree in Marital and Family Therapy. It was reccomended to me by my supervisor, a licensed psychologist for over 30 years, as a good reference book for my education and my private practice. If you are in the field, you need this book.
