Produktbeschreibung
The Science and Treatment of Psychological Disorders 16th Edition balances theory and research with practice and clinical application to give learners a solid foundation in psychopathology and develops their understanding with up-to-date and relevant examples and contexts. From its first edition, the focus of this book has always been on the balance and blending of research and clinical application and on the effort to involve the learner in the problem solving engaged in by clinicians and scientists. It continues to emphasize an integrative approach, showing how psychopathology is best understood by considering multiple perspectives -- biological, cognitive, behavioral, and socio-emotional -- and how these varying perspectives can provide us with the clearest accounting of the causes of these disorders as well as the best possible treatments. With this 16th edition, "Abnormal Psychology" is dropped from the title. The importance of stigma and mental illness is discussed throughout the book, and never is this more important than now when many social ills are too easily blamed on mental illness (e.g., gun violence) while we continue to warehouse people with mental illness in jails at an astonishing rate. With each new edition, authors Ann Kring and Sheri Johnson update, make changes, and streamline features to enhance both the scholarly and pedagogical characteristics of the book. They also devote considerable effort to couching complex concepts in prose that is sharp, clear, and vivid. The domains of psychopathology and intervention continue to become increasingly multifaceted and technical. Therefore, good coverage of psychological disorders must engage students and foster the focused attention necessary to acquire a deep, critical understanding of the material.
