The Pocket Guide to the DSM-5-TR Diagnostic Exam by Abraham M. Nussbaum | Paperback

The DSM tells you what the criteria are. It does not tell you how to sit with a person and find out whether they meet them. Abraham Nussbaum’s Pocket Guide to the DSM-5-TR Diagnostic Exam fills exactly that gap — it is a book about conducting the interview, not about the classification.

What the book covers

• A 30-minute diagnostic interview structure you can actually complete in a clinic slot
• Suggested questions for each DSM-5-TR diagnostic category, in usable language
• Screening approaches and how to narrow a differential in conversation
• Risk assessment, mental status examination, and the psychiatric history
• Interviewing across the lifespan and in difficult clinical situations
• Writing the diagnostic formulation and presenting a case

Who it’s for

Psychiatry residents, medical students on psychiatry rotations, psychiatric NP and PA students, and clinicians from other disciplines who need a reliable structure for diagnostic interviewing. Sized to fit a coat pocket.
