I ordered this book for one of our doctors and it was the cheapest one I could find. The book arrived two days sooner than I expected, which was a welcome surprise. The book was new and in perfect condition.I have purchased books for our medical group from Amazon in the past and always receive excellent service. If you need a book for any reason and you locate in on Amazon, go ahead and buy it. It will normally be the cheapest price, you'll receive it by the date you were told or sooner, and the book will be in perfect condition, unless or course, you purchase one of their used books.

I purchased this as a supplement to my graduate coursework in Mental Health Counseling. It is, of course, a well-known manual, and is very helpful for the mental health professional. Unfortunately, it is difficult to navigate, and requires some patience. However, it provides a wealth of information, and is worth the effort

The book came in a package that did not protect it very well and it got bent out of shape. Then when I opened the package and started reading the book it smelled like rat poison. It is a very important book for my profession and I can't stand to open it.
