Front Cover
Cengage Learning, Dec 19, 2012 - Psychology - 736 pages
Balancing biological, psychological, social, and cultural approaches, David Barlow and V. Mark Durand’s groundbreaking integrative approach is the most modern, scientifically valid method for studying abnormal psychology. In this Sixth Edition of their proven ABNORMAL PSYCHOLOGY: AN INTEGRATIVE APPROACH, Barlow and Durand successfully blend sophisticated research and an accessible writing style with the most widely recognized method of discussing psychopathology. Going beyond simply describing different schools of thought on psychological disorders, the authors explore the interactions of the various forces that contribute to psychopathology. A conversational writing style, consistent pedagogical elements, integrated case studies (95 percent from the authors’ own files), video clips of clients, and additional study tools make this text the most complete learning resource available. For instructors, an Instructor’s Resource Manual, Test Bank, and a wide selection of videos are available to use when teaching the course.
