Diagnostic Criteria from DSM-IV-TR Quick Reference Review

I am already a grad student/pack mule carrying my books, laptop, and various other obligatory crap, but having a small reference that is is easily transported from practicum site to practicum site makes my trek from the student parking lot all the way to the hospital complex soooo much more pleasant. Very convenient!

WORD OF WARNING!!! If you are a student that needs the DSM for a course, be forewarned that this is an abbreviated version and DOES NOT have all the description, etiology, and background on disorders that the full DSM has. This book is meant for quick reference to diagnostic criteria, specifiers, and codes; however, it is important to have a full grasp of the information in the full DSM (it was included for a reason) before using a book like this.
