WADSWORTH Abnormal Psychology: An Integrative Approach

This integrative approach balancing biological, psychological, social, and cultural approaches, is the most modern, scientifically valid method for studying abnormal psychology. In this edition, the authors blend sophisticated research and an accessible writing style with the most widely recognised method of discussing psychopathology. Going beyond simply describing different schools of thought on psychological disorders, they explore the interactions of the various forces that contribute to psychopathology. Consistent pedagogical elements, integrated case studies (mostly from the authors' own files), and additional study tools make this text a complete learning resource. For instructors, an instructor's resource manual, test bank and a wide selection of videos are available.
