Great condition

This book is just what I needed in my practice as a school psychologist.

Great Book! Very Simplified!

Great Resource

Decent.

Excellent book. Very informative.

This is a much needed text for those of us who work in the schools or train school psychologists. The DSM5 is simpler to use than previous with qualifiers that make more sense in the context of schools. The comparisons of DSM and IDEA are particularly helpful in negotiating communication between school staff and community/medical settings. This is a complex, dry topic but the text is user-friendly and will serve as a resource for practicing school psychologists and other school mental health professionals.
