Disappointed
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 13, 2022Verified Purchase
I was definitely disappointed after receiving this product. My expectation was that this book was going to be brand new because that’s what I bought and paid for. This book cost 49.99 + dollars and was very used when it arrived. The box it came in along with the packing bubble plastic was completely intact. I really need this book but I am debating returning it due to the poor condition it is in. I’ve never had any issues with other books I’ve purchased and I have purchased many. As indicated by the pictures, the corners, book spine, and pages are bent and there is a large spot that appears to have been wet at some point on one of the pages.

Great basic info but is mostly surface level

Great book for studying if you need a surface-level overview before starting your psychiatry block. You will probably need to fill in the details with other materials.

An excellent resource
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 26, 2022Verified Purchase
I used this for my psych rotation and plan to lend it to the students who rotate with me for their review. Very concise and high yield. Pair it with a decent QBank and you're set.
