I just purchased this textbook for my Psychiatry Seminar class. I absolutely love the way the book is written. It is so accessible and the examples are very demonstrative. However, I am having one major issue with the book... The answers listed on the Evolve website for many of the answers are not correct. It will be a WHICH ONE of these is correct answer, and three letters will be listed. Additionally, unlike the first edition of the book, there are no rationales for the answers. For me this is a very big problem since I want example problems to help me study for the exam.By Uber
Book did not explain things very well and author kept referecing that a topic say that was being discussed in one chapter will be dealt with in another chapter...this was frustrating to me...they could have at least given a little detail..By Mark Roberts
