"PDM finally has given clinicians--as well as researchers and
theorists--an alternative to DSM, which is largely based on symptom
counting. As the editors state, PDM provides a 'taxonomy of people'
rather than a 'taxonomy of disorders.' While the first edition was
a monumental achievement, the second edition is even more
impressive. It is an invaluable resource not only for diagnostic
purposes, but also for teaching and research. I recommend this book
to anyone--psychologist, psychiatrist, psychoanalyst, social
worker, or educator--interested in an ecologically valid way of
assessing personality and mental functioning."--Morris N. Eagle,
PhD, ABPP, Distinguished Educator-in-Residence, School of Graduate
Psychology, California Lutheran University
"People are more than their diagnoses. Diagnostic formulations
rooted in the diversity and humanity of the people we aim to help
and, at the same time, rooted in carefully evaluated empirical
evidence represent the real gold standard in our field. This
synthesis is precisely what PDM-2 aims for. The book will be of
value both to practicing clinicians and to those teaching the next
generation to think in ways that combine rigor with empathy for the
client's experience."--Paul L. Wachtel, PhD, Distinguished
Professor, Doctoral Program in Clinical Psychology, City College
and the Graduate Center of the City University of New York
"It is quite difficult to achieve agreement on psychiatric
diagnosis, and almost impossible to achieve agreement on
psychodynamic concepts. The most interesting aspects of human
nature are inherently the very hardest to agree upon, because they
are also the most idiosyncratic, complicated, buried, and
inferential. This heroically ambitious book is a startlingly
successful synthesis of the confusing babel of different
psychoanalytic tongues. It will improve the daily practice of
psychodynamic clinicians, enliven teaching in the field, and
contribute to the infant field of psychodynamic research. A labor
of love and erudition."--Allen Frances, MD, Department of
Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences (Emeritus), Duke University
"A masterful work that fills a gap in the clinical literature. This
21st-century psychodynamic manual not only covers diagnostic
formulations, but also presents validated research tools that can
be used in assessment of patients. The editors have recruited
leaders in the field from across the globe to contribute to this
major, far-reaching resource. PDM-2 takes a lifespan approach,
covering infancy, childhood, adolescence, adulthood, and old age.
Crucially, it takes seriously the need to integrate research and
practice, with clear comparisons between the PDM-2 and DSM and ICD
diagnostic systems. The inclusion of extensive case material helps
the editors achieve their goal of addressing the complexities
rather than just the symptoms of patients."--Miriam Steele, PhD,
Department of Psychology, The New School for Social Research -The
depth is impressive….Recommended. Upper-level undergraduates
through professionals/practitioners.--Choice Reviews,
11/1/2017ƒƒThis edition is both timely and crucial to the continued
advancement of the field….This book takes into account the whole
person and does not get weighed down by the mere presence or
absence of symptoms. It goes beyond the subjective nature of the
disorder and truly makes clinicians think. Given the present state
of the field, this book truly provides a missing piece of the
therapeutic puzzle….No matter what your theoretical framework, this
book and its ideas will work for you. Truly a mind-opening
experience, and one which makes clinicians stop and think about
their current therapeutic orientation. A must read for open-minded
clinicians willing to go beyond the confines of the current
diagnostic models. *****!--Doody's Review Service, 7/28/2017
