"Understanding Abnormal Psychology" appeals to professors who teach an applied multicultural approach that is more rigorous and integrative (as compared to the "Essentials" version that addresses the need for a lower level, less expensive text). The strengths of this comprehensive text lie in its multicultural coverage, research and promotion of critical-thinking skills.

One of the first abnormal psychology books to present a thoroughly integrated multicultural perspective, this seventh edition of Understanding Abnormal Psychology continues to excel to this end. Sue/Sue/Sue engages students in understanding abnormal behaviour as both a scientific and a clinical endeavour, along with the ways that mental health professionals study and attempt to treat it. The result is an inviting and stimulating look into abnormal psychology with scholarship of the highest quality. Highlights of the new seventh edition include: - Fully revised seventh edition which offers updated research in all subject areas throughout the text - More extensive coverage and integration of multicultural models than ever - New! Chapter-opening and chapter summaries in bulleted format - New! Myth vs. Reality feature added to dispel preconceived notions regarding mental health issues - Featured disorder charts now extended to cover all disorders
