This lively, informative introduction to abnormal psychology covers historical background, social and ethical issues, and treatment. The coverage is comprehensive, and includes specific patterns and classifications of mental disorders. It also bridges humanistic studies and psychology by discussing the representation of abnormal behavior in classical and modern literature. The book draws primarily from psychiatry and psychology, but also incorporates views from social work, sociology, anthropology, political science, law, and biology. The author presents a modern, cross-cultural analysis of abnormal psychology. Pedagogical aids include chapter summaries, lists of major points, and diagrams.
