This book, which clarifies the distinctions between the vast array of personality disorders and helps clinicians make accurate diagnoses, has been thoroughly updated to incorporate the recent change in the DSM-IV. Using the classification scheme he pioneered, Dr. Millon guides the clinicians through the intricate maze of personality disorders, with special attention on changes in their conceptualization over the last decade.

Everly), both published by Wiley; as well as Clinical Multiaxial Inventory II Manual and Theories of Personality and Psychopathology. ROGER D. DAVIS is a University Fellow in Psychology and doctoral candidate at the University of Miami.
