Overdiagnosis in Psychiatry - Joel (Professor of Psychiatry Emeritus Paris - Bog

This book, now revised in a second edition, examines the problem of over-diagnosis in psychiatry, focusing on problems with current diagnostic systems. Paris focuses on conditions most likely to be overdiagnosed, including major depressive disorder, ADHD, bipolar-II disorder, autism spectrum disorders, and PTSD. This new edition expands on Dr. Paris' argument and offers a new section on the link between aggressive psychopharmacology and current diagnostic
practices, as well as on transdiagnostic approaches to classification of mental disorders.
