This extremely versatile handbook, written for students and practitioners, taps current treatment and assessment research to provide up-to-date coverage of emotional and behavioral disorders, major DSM-IV-TR diagnostic categories, MMPI-2 correlates and other test-response patterns, and treatment options. Diagnostic concepts and observations are linked with specific assessment and test data for diagnostic categories; this is then integrated with recommended intervention procedures. In a single volume, the authors have synthesized an abundance of information and presented it in a manageable and accessible manner. Their extensive experience in clinical and forensic psychology-teaching, conducting research, interacting with clients, working in the criminal justice system- highly qualifies them to know and present the kind of practical information students and practitioners need. Additional outstanding features . . . * emphasizes multimodal assessment and treatment * includes extensive discussions of clinical challenges, such as suicidal clients, the criminal personality, deception, and malingering * offers "bibliotherapy" reading assignments and appropriate relaxation techniques for various types of clients * provides coverage of legal issues-competency, criminal responsibility, and civil commitment * presents useful tips on case preparation and professional practice in the office and the courtroom

Integrated Diagnostics, Assessment, and Intervention in Adult and Adolescent Psychopathology

The Clinician's Handbook

"This rich collection of case studies, including real contemporary and classic cases, illustrates a wide range of clinical and legal issues related to abnormal psychology." Case Studies in Abnormal Psychology brings the field of abnormal psychology to life for readers with its rare combination of readability, humor, and strong scholarship. Readers gain a greater sense of what the person experiences and how he or she reacts to the diverse factors studied in psychopathology as they apply principles of abnormal psychology to these cases. To more fully understand the nature of the disorder, each case in this book contains the full background material relevant to etiological, diagnostic, and therapeutic considerations. Also, significant family and social history data are presented to give a clear picture of how specific behavior patterns were generated and maintained." For anyone interested in clinical and legal issues in psychology.

Asad A. Abidi

Electrical Engineering Integrated Circuits for Wireless Communications High-frequency integrated circuit design is a booming area of growth that is driven not only by the expanding capabilities of underlying circuit technologies like CMOS, but also by the dramatic increase in wireless communications products that depend on them. Integrated Circuits for Wireless Communications includes seminal and classic papers in the field and is the first all-in-one resource to address this increasingly important topic. Internationally known and highly regarded in the field, editors Asad Abidi, Paul Gray, and Robert G. Meyer have meticulously compiled more than 100 papers and articles covering the very latest high-level integrated circuits techniques and solutions in use today. Integrated Circuits for Wireless Communications is devised expressly to provide IC design engineers, system architects, and integrators with a practical understanding of subjects ranging from architecture choices for integrated transceivers to actual circuit designs in all viable IC technologies, such as bipolar, CMOS, and GaAs. The papers selected represent a breadth of coverage and level of expertise that is simply unmatched in the field. Topics covered include: Radio architectures Receivers Transmitters and transceivers Power amplifiers and RF switches Oscillators Passive components Systems applications

Integrated Circuits for Wireless Communications

This volume presents classic and contemporary legal cases that have set important precedents related to psychological and mental health issues in criminal and civil proceedings; the role of practitioners as expert witnesses and forensic consultants; and legal concerns in general clinical practice. Engagingly written, the book brings to life the details of each case and the personal stories involved, while also providing a solid introduction to foundational issues in the field. Forensic and clinical professionals will find this a highly informative resource, and it will also be useful for undergraduate- and graduate-level courses and professional training.
