Synopsis
Presents 20 contributions primarily written by psychology professors addressing vulnerability to psychopathological disorders across the lifespan. The volume introduces, reviews, and contextualizes concepts of vulnerability in psychopathology. The idea of personality from the perspective of childhood development is then discussed, with implications for adult personality disorders. The major Axis I disorders are then examined in terms of adolescents and adults: alcohol/substance abuse, depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, and eating disorders. Summaries and ideas for future exploration are also covered. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
