Selecting Effective Treatments: A Comprehensive, Systematic Guide to Treating Mental Disorders

This book is well written and easy to read. I am a 5 year MSW social worker and just purchased this book. It has given me a better understanding of the DSM-IV-TR and is an invaluable professional resource. It will be exceptionally helpful as I prepare to study for my LCSW exam. This book is worth every cent!
By K. Young
I highly recommend this guide to my students/ interns. It helps you understand the most appropriate treatments and interventions for the most common diagnoses that a Marriage and Family Therapist typically encounters. This is a great adjunct resource to the DSM.
