Title: Clinician's Thesaurus - The Guide to Conducting Interviews and Writing Psychological Reports
Series: Clinician's Toolbox
Author: Edward L. Zuckerman
Genre: Psychology / Writing/ Informational
Rating: 4 stars

This text provides clinician's with a summary of common disorders as well as aids to write a client report by providing appropriate headings with details of what to include.

Unfortunately, the text lacks any examples or detailed formatting instructions for writing a client report and I feel this is quite a let-down.
