From reviews of previous editions: "For a volume of its size, its scope is tremendous. I simply cannot find an area of omission, even though I looked very hard for one.” Robert O. Pasnau, M.D. UCLA School of Medicine "Kaplan and Sadock’s Synopsis of Psychiatry continues to be the standard by which synopses of psychiatry should be measured. It is encyclopedic in nature with the chapters being engaging, well-written, and thoroughly enjoyable.” Gene Usdin, M.D. Louisiana State University "Every psychiatrist should own this book and refer to it frequently. It is equally useful for those about to enter practice and for those of us who have been in the field for many years.” Steven S. Sharfstein, M.D. President, Medical Director and Chief Officer Sheppard Pratt Physicians "With the ever-increasing knowledge base the practicing clinician needs a quick and thorough reference source, Kaplan and Sadock’s Synopsis of Psychiatry admirably fulfills the need.” Walter N. Stone, M.D. University of Cincinnati College of Medicine "…they have produced a volume which reviews all relevant areas of knowledge and does so in lucid, highly organized fashion... In fact, the volume in total is a remarkable accomplishment, one which I will highly recommend to trainees and faculty alike.” Michael Serby, M.D. Beth Israel Medical Center "…a wonderful book, with up-to-minute information presented in a logical and clinically useful manner. Many difficult concepts are explained quite well.” "…the standard against which other texts must be judged.” Ira Lesser, M.D. University of California, Los Angeles
