Scientific methods are presented in a clear, unique, and non-threatening manner, and are based on the most current research.

Abnormal Psychology (5th Edition)

Self-Help

Death & Grief

This was one of the first texts to adopt a systems approach, integrating biological, psychological, and social theories to explain abnormal behaviour. The authors bring both the science and the personal aspects of abnormal psychology to life in this second Canadian edition, answering pressing intellectual and human questions as accurately, sensitively, and completely as possible. It is an engaging, yet rigorous treatment of the topics and disorders of abnormal psychology, highly regarded for presenting scientific methods clearly. Methodology is explained in bite-size pieces throughout the chapters rather than in a single, difficult-to-read chapter. Detailed case studies open each chapter and historical background information is provided to give students interesting, “real-life” examples of abnormal behaviour. In addition, each chapter follows a consistent organization, including major sections on typical symptoms/features, classification, epidemiology, etiology, and treatment.
