A great combination of descriptive contexts and data comparisons. The authors rate each study according to soundness of methodology. Useful categories to separate mental health from physical ailments. Some chapters are devoted to explaining the context of this handbook, which is very helpful for a beginner to this field. Very comprehensive up to the date of publication. This field is probably changing rapidly.
