CHOICE Review

In this well-written and comprehensive volume the author has undertaken the difficult task of clarifying the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (1980) as well as other diagnostic systems used by mental health practitioners in treatment planning. Seligman is a researcher, clinician, and professor. Her approach assumes a basic knowledge of counseling theory and process. It offers a compact analysis of differential diagnosis, intake interviews, assessment tools and procedures, and the referral process as well as treatment planning for individuals, groups, couples, and families. Seligman reviews relevant research and presents case studies and extended transcriptions to illustrate the diagnosis and treatment options discussed. Thorough and practical, this book should be of considerable interest to mental health practitioners, and graduate and advanced undergraduate students.-A.L. Deming, SUNY College at Fredonia
