Johnson and Kring continue to bring to light cutting-edge research, which they balance against clinical understanding.  Throughout, they strive to provide clear prose, helpful examples of clinical cases to illustrate symptoms and treatments, and up-to-date scientific coverage of issues that are front and center in current media such as opioids and vaping, and digital mental health. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a shorter, more focused text, the authors give learners a solid foundation in psychopathology. They emphasize an integrative approach, showing how psychopathology is best understood by considering multiple perspectives—biological, cognitive, behavioral, and socio-emotional—and how these varying perspectives can provide us with the clearest accounting of the causes of these disorders.  For each disorder, they provide learners with an understanding of the best supported biological and psychological treatments, so that learners come away with the latest science on what “works” and for whom.  Critical issues in how race, culture, and country of origin are considered. The final chapter of the book covers important legal and ethical issues in the mental health field. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe importance of stigma and mental illness is discussed throughout the book—never is this more important than now when many social ills are too easily blamed on mental illness (e.g., gun violence) while we continue to warehouse people with mental illness in jails at an astonishing rate. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAN INTERACTIVE, MULTIMEDIA LEARNING EXPERIENCE\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis textbook includes access to an interactive, multimedia e-text.
