A companion study guide to Introductory Textbook of Psychiatry, Seventh Edition. With a format that replicates what medical students, psychiatric residents and others might encounter in specialty certification exams, this guide is organised along the lines of DSM-5.

The book provides a comprehensive introduction to the field both for students new to psychiatry and for students who are studying for their board exams.

Thorough, yet succinct enough to be carried in a coat pocket, the guide is DSM-5 compatible and provides an easily accessible, authoritative introduction to psychiatry.

As a companion to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5), the DSM-5 Guidebook acts as a guide for busy clinicians on the use of diagnostic criteria and codes, documentation, and compensation. It also serves as an educational text and includes a structured curriculum that facilitates its use in courses.
