It discusses the validity and reliability of classification-based approaches to clinical diagnosis, and frames them in their broader historical and societal context. \u003ci\u003eThe Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)\u003c\/i\u003e is used across the world in research and a range of mental health settings; here, Stijn Vanheule argues that the diagnostic reliability of the DSM is overrated, built on a limited biomedical approach to mental disorders that neglects context, and ultimately breeds stigma. The book subsequently makes a passionate plea for a more detailed approach to the study of mental suffering by means of case formulation. Starting from literature on qualitative research the author makes clear how  to guarantee the quality of clinical case formulations. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2018-07-18\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783319831091\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-319-44669-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 243\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Nature Switzerland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47696826007692,"sku":"9783319831091","price":89.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783319831091.jpg?v=1776778035","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783319831091","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
