Psychiatry
"This is an appealing introductory text.  In my opinion there is no excellent introductory book for medical students in psychiatry, and what book to recommend is a topic frequently discussed among Residency and Medical Student training directors. In the absence of a great book, medical students use "board review" books which are insufficient in content.  So there is a need."Deborah Spitz, M.D.Education Mission Director and Director of Residency TrainingDepartment of PsychiatryUniversity of Chicago"Based on their CV's, I would say that Cutler and Marcus are well-respected medical educators who have been active in teaching medical students and in the organization of psychiatric medical student educators."Gordon Strauss, M.D.Professor of PsychiatryUniversity of Louisville"The second edition has been thoroughly updated and includes an excellent new chapter on child and adolescent psychiatry as well as broadened discussions on the geriatric population and psychotherapy... I am confident that this book will provide them with an exceptional foundation in psychiatry. Medical students, psychiatry residents, and all mental health workers early in their training would benefit tremendously from adding this book to their collection." --Doody's
