"…a great resource for professionals in the fields of psychiatry, psychology, social work, counseling and medicine who want a very comprehensive understanding of the disease…a truly necessary addition to libraries…" (E-STREAMS, April 2006)

"Of its far-reaching boundaries and because we have not seen another book on this subject as detailed and well-organized; simply, everything the clinician needs to know in order to arrive at suitable treatment for the individual patient is contained on the pages of this handbook." (Electric Review, November/December 2005)

"...within the chapters themselves much attention has been paid to a uniform structuring and a clear overview.... the owner of this book has the overwhelming feeling of having a treasure trove of knowledge and information, which appeals due to its timeliness. While it is a reference work, the book also urges the reader to browse. Thus, in spite of the far from low price, it is essential for psychiatrists interested in biology and neuroscientists interested in psychiatry."(Biologie in unserer Zeit)
