摘要

This book was originally published as the Gale Encyclopedia of Mental Disorders. When I reviewed it for Reference Reviews (RR 2003/462) I started my review by saying that I was unsure of the difference between an encyclopedia of mental health and an encyclopedia of mental illness. The title change here indicates that I was right, because very little else has changed in it. My 2003 review voiced my suspicion of put-together reference books of this sort. The editors were not psychiatrists but were, I presumed, employed by Thomson Gale to gather contributions from the usual crop of associate professors at American universities and process the results into a standard format. The results of this sort of exercise, I noted, are inevitably bland, superficial, and tend to skate over controversies. On the other hand the book was well produced and balanced. The entries ought to have been comprehensible to anyone with a good general education.
