Written for practitioners and trainees, this handbook provides: the six crucial steps in differential diagnosis that must be considered for each and every patient; 27 decision trees that teach the reader how to go from the most common presenting symptoms to a final diagnosis; 62 differential diagnosis tables, each of which provides a head-to-head comparison of a disorder with its differential diagnostic contenders; and a symptom index for DSM-IV-TR that lists those disorders that the reader should consider when formulating a differential diagnosis given a particular symptom in the patient's presentation.
