    Their dedication and hard work have yielded an authoritative volume that defines and classifies mental disorders in order to improve diagnoses, treatment, and research.The criteria are concise and explicit, intended to facilitate an objective assessment of symptom presentations in a variety of clinical settings -- inpatient, outpatient, partial hospital, consultation-liaison, clinical, private practice, and primary care. New features and enhancements make DSM-5 easier to use across all settings:- The chapter organization reflects a lifespan approach, with disorders typically diagnosed in childhood (such as neurodevelopmental disorders) at the beginning of the manual, and those more typical of older adults (such as neurocognitive disorders) placed at the end. Also included are age-related factors specific to diagnosis. - The latest findings in neuroimaging and genetics have been integrated into each disorder along with gender and cultural considerations.- The revised organizational structure recognizes symptoms that span multiple diagnostic categories, providing new clinical insight in diagnosis. - Specific criteria have been streamlined, consolidated, or clarified to be consistent with clinical practice (including the consolidation of autism disorder, Asperger's syndrome, and pervasive developmental disorder into autism spectrum disorder; the streamlined classification of bipolar and depressive disorders; the restructuring of substance use disorders for consistency and clarity; and the enhanced specificity for major and mild neurocognitive disorders).- Dimensional assessments for research and validation of clinical results have been provided.- Both ICD-9-CM and ICD-10-CM codes are included for each disorder, and the organizational structure is consistent with the new ICD-11 in development.The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition, is the most comprehensive, current, and critical resource for clinical practice available to today's mental health clinicians and researchers of all orientations. The information contained in the manual is also valuable to other physicians and health professionals, including psychologists, counselors, nurses, and occupational and rehabilitation therapists, as well as social workers and forensic and legal specialists.

    Kellee Slater works in one of the most demanding areas of medical operations, liver transplantation. In this inspiring, heartbreaking, and darkly humorous memoir, she opens up the fast-paced world of donor surgery. She takes readers with her as she flies across the Rocky Mountains in winter to collect transplant organs, rushes out of a department store change room to save the life of a toddler who is choking to death, and, horrifyingly, tells the wrong father in a hospital waiting room that there is no hope for his daughter. An ideal read for anyone with an interest in modern medicine, this inspirational memoir portrays both the joyous and difficult experiences of one of the most demanding jobs in the world.

    The Cell: a Molecular Approach meets this challenge by providing students with not only the current information, but also with an introduction to the experimental nature of contemporary research. Designed for use in introductory cell biology courses, The Cell presents current, comprehensive science in a readable and cohesive text that students can master in the course of one semester. The new third edition of The Cell retains the organization, themes, and special features of earlier editions, but is updated to reflect scientific advances since publication of the second edition, including progress in genome sequencing, advances in understanding transcriptional regulation and mRNA processing, use of DNA microarrays in global studies of gene expression and cancer diagnostics, advances in nuclear transport and protein trafficking, progress in understanding the regulation of programmed cell death, potential medical applications of embryonic cells, and development of oncogene-targeted treatments. Key Experimental boxes in each chapter describe seminal experiments in modern cell biology, showing the detail and background to give students a sense of doing science. Molecular Medicine boxes relate basic science to clinical practice or potential and show the excitement of molecular discovery and solutions to disease. Chapter summaries are organized in outline form corresponding to the major sections and subsections of each chapter. This section-by-section format is coupled with a list of the key terms introduced in eachsection, providing a succinct but comprehensive review of the material. The full-color art program is both pedagogically and scientifically outstanding. In addition, each chapter includes a brief chapter outline, boldfaced key terms (also defined in the glossary), and many new chapter-end questions with answers in the back of the book. With a clear focus on cell biology as an integrative theme, topics such as developmental biology, plant biology, the immune system, the nervous system, and muscle physiology are covered in their broader biological context. The book can be bundled for purchase with a special edition of Molecules, Cells, and Genes, a CD-ROM keyed to the textbook and combining the essential features of a Study Guide and Problems book.
