I'm currently doing an essay on depression and I have found this book to be just what I needed, it's clear and complete. I highly recommend it to anyone, whether they are studying psychology or not, it's great!

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to read and understand - a must for psychology students, 31 Mar 2001
This book helped me enormously during my first year of doing psychology. It goes into schizophrenia, depression, anxiety orders in great detail but is very easy to follow. I recommend this to anyone beginning a course that will look at abnormal pscyhology.
