Read this for my uni course, after I read bits of it in a pdf and was convinced it’d be a good investment. The chapters are to the point, there are barely any repetitions on 1000+ pages, it contains a lot of critical accounts too and they always give you an example when you’re hoping for it. Only criticism I’d have is, they could have included disorders from an even broader range, but for my course this was perfect.
