« DSM IV TR »
I sure wasnt expecting the First Indian Edition printed in 2005. If I had saved the packing I would have shipped it back. It makes me very leary of ordering from Amazon again.

« IF YOU ARE BUYING THIS BOOK, READ THIS!!!!! »
Let me start by saying if you find this useful, please click on the "Yes" next to the question "Did you find this review uesful". The reason i ask is because i think this is important information and with enough yes's, it can move to the top of the reviews.

My review is to do with the quality of the book. You will see some people complain about the quality of this book. The reason is because there are 2 editions out there in English, the US release and the India release. The main way you can tell is from the cover as the Indian version has "Jaypee" as the publisher. Now, the Jaypee version is legal to buy and sell in the USA, but is of lesser quality (print and paper) than the US version and thats fine as long as you know thats what you are buying. Some people think they are buying a US release and pay US prices, but get a cheaper version.

As a result, i have created a new listing for the International edition, which can be found using B001GLFCUK in the search box. If it does not work, it is in the process of being accepted by Amazon.

If you thought you were getting a US verion and your copy says "Jaypee", contact the seller who has to accept it back.

« The binding broke »
Even though book arrived shrink wrapped and quickly, the first time I opened it, pages began to break out of the book's binding. It appeared to have been re-glued at some point. I would not have bought the book if I had known about the binding's condition. It wasn't mentioned in the summary.

« Misrepresented product »
I thought I was purchasing an authentic DSM IV. To my great dismay, this is not an original publication it is a very poorly made photocopied and/or scanned version. I question if this is allowed under copyright laws. Very disappointed with this purchase.

« "Must Have" »
A definite "must have" book for any student in a counseling program. Even if not "required", this book makes writing reports so much easier because then you know EXACTLY what is required for deifferent diagnosis. I suggest all counseling/psychology students buy this book as early on in their studies as possible.
