The fourth edition of the award-winning text, Abnormal Psychology, provides students with a comprehensive and engaging introduction to the subject. Building on the legacy of previous editions, it provides cutting-edge coverage of core concepts and promotes evidence-based learning and research in the field.

This new edition is closely aligned with the DSM-5 and ICD-10 and includes a separate chapter on gender dysphoria. The numerous examples and case studies from Australia and the Asia–Pacific region will encourage students to consider the real-world application of their studies. Written by a team of locally based, leading experts in their fields, Abnormal Psychology 4e can be relied on for its up-to-date content.
