Better Shape than Expected!
Corner dings, likely from shipping. Glossy pages vs. My previous DSM-5. VERY pleased with my experience 😊

Talk About Inclusive and Complex. Oh My!
This is a compendium of the very latest DSM and it is a work of love, scholarship, art, and science all in one. I am so happy to have gotten the hardcover edition because it was worth it. I'm already referring to it in so many ways that if I'd bought the paperback, it would have been dogeared by now. This is a fantastic piece of work and I hope to see it become even more culturally inclusive when the next step comes up for the DSM V-TR, but for now, this is a vast improvement over the DSM IV-TR. Don't buy the paperback. For the few extra dollars, this is worthwhile. You will be glad in the end.

Worth the price
This book is so worth the price. It's organized perfectly and holds so much information. This is definitely a book that I'll keep with me for as long as it'll hold up. Even though I'm not studying to become a clinical psychologist or psychotherapist, I'll be researching developmental psychology and this will come in handy!

Informative
I give this book 5 stars because it is a helpful manual to use in research. The DSM-5 is a helpful tool that people can use academically, personally, and easily to gain a better understanding of mental disorders. Academically, students and teachers can reference material that can be used as concrete evidence for writing essays or scholarly journals. Personally, people such as family members, loved ones, and patients can use the DSM-5 to gain personal insight to what someone may be experiencing: making it easier to grasp the reality of what someone is really experiencing. The information in the DSM-5 can be easily accessed using the table of contents that quickly guides the reader to specific criteria that may be of concern such as a disorder.Thumbs up!

Definitely recommend!
I needed this for my MSW curriculum and it came in time, great condition, and packaging. All the pages were printed correctly and I’m still using it. If you’re looking for a DSM this is it. I was hesitant at first after seeing reviews of pages missing or words printed upside down on other posts but thankfully this one is the truth. Mine is now a little worn being that I used it for a diagnostic and assessment course but even with all my excessive use it’s still in great shape!-oh and a friend tabbed and coded mine, it doesn’t come with the labels

A little disappointed
I really wanted to rate 3.5. It shipped promptly, which was really nice. But I could have sworn the option I chose was new. The hard cover is used, the paper covers the binder and pages thin. First use and part of cover tore; it was over sized and kept slipping off. I used tape to secure paper to hard cover. The print on some pages is blurred. I feel short changed, but I need it, so I have to live with it. I just hoping that I don't find any missing pages as I progress in my reading assignments.

Seems to be an authentic copy
I was hesitant about ordering this, due to the many clearly counterfeit copies being sold here. I ordered the hardbound book. Received it well packaged in cardboard. I took at least 20 minutes to page through the book. The weight of the pages is fine, not too thin. Smells like a book, no overpowering weird smell. I didn't notice any pages missing, nor any typos. I looked for the word "clinical" a few times and it is correct. The seller was Amazon, I decided not to chance any of the other ones. Can't wait to take a closer look to figure out what's wrong with me. Hope this helps!
