It is difficult d' to exaggerate my enthusiasm for this book like resource for students and practioners in the same way. Clearly written, simply organized, accessible and diversified; this volume is simply the best text d' introduction about l' interview of mental health available aujourd' today. What distinguishes this book is it& #039; identification of S of the diagnostic exits of basic line while respecting it dynamic and of process of l' interview which allows l' image diagnoses d' to emerge. By organizing the book along the diagnostic lines rather than the simple domians of l' interview; The bassy removes l' emphase of the book of the only data acquisition in favour of l' interpretation and the synthesis which are the true qualifications of l' interview clinicial. In this manner it avoids the principal weakness of the majority of the texts d' introduction d' interview; what tend to lend d' more; attention with which data to gather at the expense what to make with l' information one obtain. The most notable improvement with the 2nd edition is the delineation of Shea& #039; technique of S for l' evaluation of suicide and violence. C' is a welcome addition on a matter which is a source perrenial d' concern for n' import which functions in the mental health. It& #039; shame of SA that this book n' is not the lists of reading above more required in the vocational schools. I recommend this book to the trainees of n' import which professional line which wants to learn more about l' art of l' clinical interview, and with the experts who want to draw benefit from wisdom d' a true Master of the matter.
