      Review

      "…deals with the more severely impaired patients such as those with borderline personality disorder….excellent examples of the Millonian writing style that will be familiar to his many readers…highly structured, well organized, yet quite readable, offering well-reasoned logic as well as wonderful case examples. The descriptions of the various personality disorders and their subtypes must compete for the absolute best characterizations of those disorders available in the clinical literature. Those descriptions alone are worth the price of these paperback books." (PsycCRITIQUES, 7/30/08)
