During the past decade or more, there has been a rapid evolution of mental health services and treatment technologies, shifting psychiatric epidemiology, changes in public behavioral health policy, and increased understanding in medicine regarding approaches to clinical work that focus on patient-centeredness.

As a reference for a certification examination, that effort will benefit enormously from a comprehensive handbook on the subject.
