Article Abstract

From our regular book review column.

One might wonder whether a paperback guide to mental illness warrants a price of nearly $35.00. Clinician’s Guide to Mental Illness aims to provide a review of common adult mental and substance use disorders that is both comprehensive and practical. It is written for mental health and primary medical care practitioners. The chapters are authored by a multidisciplinary group of research-practitioners and clinicians from Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinic at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.
