What's New
The ninth edition text and supplements form a complete media resources package. The accompanying Mind MAP Plus CD-ROM includes 19 exclusive video clips from the Discovery Channel and McGraw-Hill’s Faces of Abnormal Psychology video collection, each of which is referenced in the relevant chapter. Every chapter also includes questions to encourage students to think critically about the video in the context of what they’ve read in the text. The Instructor’s Manual and Test Bank also include test questions and class activities based on the video clips.
Reorganized and streamlined (from 19 to 18 chapters), this edition once again includes the humanistic-existential perspective.
New coverage of ethics appears in Chapter 3 ("Research Methods") and in Chapter 18 ("Legal Issues").
The Online Learning Center now includes PowerWeb—a password-protected website that includes current articles, weekly updates with assessment, timely world news, refereed Web links, interactive exercises, and much more. A PowerWeb access card is free with each new copy of the text!
