"This book describes the theory and methodology of eliciting and measuring psychopathology and the ways in which the signs and symptoms of mental disorder are combined into diagnostic categories. Mental disorders are classified and measured to allow clinicians to communicate with one another about the patients' symptoms, prognosis, and treatment and to ensure that research is conducted with comparable groups of subjects." "Essential reading for clinicians and non-clinical scientists engaged in research on psychiatric disorders, trainees and junior psychiatrists, and clinical psychologists."--BOOK JACKET

Devised and presented by Prof. Lewis Wolpert (University College, London), this series was inspired by his own experience of severe depression. The first episode opens with a view of Saneline counsellors at work. Prof. Wolpert now realises how difficult it is for people to understand the sufferings of the clinically depressed. He visits the psychiatrist who treated him at the Royal Free Hospital, London, and they discuss his own experience of the condition. Two women describe their different experiences of clinical depression and their strategies for fighting it. Dr. Aaron Beck (Philadelphia) and Dr. Joe Herbert (Univ. of Cambridge) discuss the psychology and brain physiology of depression and Prof. Peter McGuffin (Univ. of Wales) discusses his research into the genetic inheritance of depression which includes studies of identical twins and of a colony of rhesus monkeys. Experimental work with children aimed at disclosing insecurity is also shown, as it is thought that childhood insecurity can be a factor in adult depression
