Diagnosis and the DSM: A Critical Review (Palgrave Pivot)

Diagnosis and the DSM: A Critical Review (Palgrave Pivot)

This book critically evaluates the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). Through analysis of the history of psychiatric diagnosis and of the handbook itself, it argues that the DSM-5 has a narrow biomedical approach to mental disorders, and proposes a new contextualizing model of mental health symptoms.
