DSM Library

DSM-5: Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
The most comprehensive, current, and critical resource for clinical practice available to today's mental health clinicians and researchers of all orientations. DSM-5® is used by health professionals, social workers,and forensic and legal specialists to diagnose and classify mental disorders, and is the product of more than 10 years of effort by hundreds of international experts in all aspects of mental health. The criteria are concise and explicit, intended to facilitate an objective assessment of symptom presentations in a variety of clinical settings- inpatient, outpatient, partial hospital, consultation-liaison, clinical, private practice, and primary care.

DSM-5: Handbook of Differential Diagnosis
The Handbook helps clinicians and students learning the process of psychiatric diagnosis improve their skill in formulating a comprehensive differential diagnosis by providing a variety of approaches. These include a six-step diagnostic framework, 29 bottom-up “decision trees”, and 66 differential diagnosis tables for use once a tentative diagnosis has been made. It offers a solution to differential diagnosis that recognizes the complexity of human personality and the structural utility of the DSM-5® classification.

DSM-5: Clinical Cases
These cases exemplify the mental disorders categorized in the DSM-5®. Cases are cross-referenced with DSM-5® and help with understanding diagnostic concepts, including symptoms, severity, comorbidities, age of onset and development, dimensionality across disorders, and gender and cultural implications. A brief discussion follows each case, analyzing the clinical presentation, highlighting key points, and exploring issues of comorbidity that may complicate both the diagnosis and subsequent treatment.

Guía de Consulta de los Criterios Diagnósticos del DSM-5
(Note: this is an abridged Spanish version of the DSM-5)
Esta Guia de Consulta es una pequeña y práctica guía de referencia rápida, que contiene solamente la clasificación DSM-5 (es decir, la lista de trastornos, subtipos, especificadores y códigos de diagnóstico), las partes que explican el uso del manual y los criterios diagnósticos. La Guía de consulta de los criterios diagnósticos del DSM-5 debe usarse junto con el DSM-5 completo. Para usarla correctamente es necesario familiarizarse con las descripciones escritas de cada trastorno que acompañan al conjunto de criterios.

Previous editions of DSM are included in the Legacy Collection for reference and archival purposes. Each edition is provided in Adobe’s Portable Document Format (PDF).
