Synopsis

A casebook for introductory level courses in Abnormal Psychology; a supplementary text for other Psychology and Social Work courses where appropriate. This casebook is uniquely all for introductory level psychology students. To be used with a main abnormal textbook. Devoid of the often "psychobabble" and "medicalbabble" this text uses clear, accessible language and explanations and features real cases based on a variety of psychopathologies-all involving patients/clients from a wide variety of cultural, ethnic, racial, religious, social, and socioeconomic backgrounds-and all based on the author's own experiences as a practicing social worker and psychologist.
