I was pleased to be a reviewer for this book during its final stages, and with that disclosure, am making a recommendation here. I have read several books on the new DSM-5 and attended at least 12 hours of training about the DSM-5 in as many months. Given all that, as a private practitioner and a college instructor at the graduate and undergraduate levels, I am happy to have this fairly priced, comprehensive overview of the changes in the new DSM-5. For many disorders, the ICD-9 code, the name of the disorder, and the upcoming ICD-10 codes are presented in charts. There is a straightforward explanation of the reorganization from the multi-axial diagnosis. I liked the depth of the former diagnostic formation and had heard of the DSM-5 change with preemptive resentment. Thus, my endorsement of this book ought not to be construed as unabashed enthusiasm for every change in the DSM-5. However, we must deal with the parameters as they exist, and this book clarifies those parameters succinctly. Of particular interest to many will be the discussion of the division of the anxiety disorders into separate chapters for anxiety/panic disorders, trauma-related disorders and obsessive-compulsive disorders. Another point of interest is the blending of substance abuse and dependence, eliminating the nuanced and subjective differences within substance use problems. Dr. Reichenberg provides an explanation of the cross-cutting questionnaires, which are intended to provide a quick means of assessing various complaints and symptoms that may impact diagnosis, treatment or prognosis. She also addresses the increased emphasis on culture in the DSM-5. Practitioners will appreciate the list of free assessments, drawing on the revised diagnostic criteria, available for download at the APA website. This a very accessible, manageable handbook as we translate our experience with the DSM-IV-TR to the DSM-5. - Dolores T. Puterbaugh, Ph.D., LMHC, LMFT, NCC

I have been looking for this book since beginning to prepare for the changes ahead. I'm a clinical professional and at last someone has digested the material and put it in a usable form.
