«DSM-IV: Casos Clínicos» is the guide to differential diagnosis by Allen Frances and Ruth Ross, published by Artmed in paperback, in Portuguese.
Based on DSM-IV criteria, the work presents detailed clinical cases showing how to apply the diagnostic system to real situations. Each case serves to practice identifying psychiatric disorders, distinguishing entities with similar symptoms, and understanding the clinical reasoning that leads from symptoms to a well-founded assessment, in both psychiatry and psychology.
Aimed at professionals and students of psychiatry, psychology, and health sciences who want to deepen their practical application of DSM-IV.
