Review

"This glossary is a compact presentation of the current state of psychiatry, and is intended for the widening audience concerning with its workings. Whereas the standard terms are still its foundation, many of the definitions and examples have been edited to allow those outside the field to grasp their meanings more easily. Its scope has grown to include the influences that other disciplines and new technologies have brought to its already complex composition." - From the Introduction
