Critics Review
Dr. Gunderson was instrumental in the identification and understanding of borderline personality disorder. This book synthesizes his invaluable experience and wisdom with the most up-to-date clinical data. The two chapters on psychopharmacology are highly informative. In this well written book, Dr. Gunderson exhibits a sensitivity to all concerned in treatment — patients, clinicians, families — that is rarely seen. I would highly recommend this book for any clinician, therapist, patient, or family member touched by borderline personality disorder.
* Doody Enterprises *If you treat borderline personality disorder patients and want to deepen your understanding of these patients, read this book.
