Personality Disorders in Modern Life by Theodore Millon

Personality Disorders in Modern Life by Theodore Millon

Theodore Millon, one of the world's leading authorities on personality disorders and the best-selling author of Disorders of Personality, explores the many subtleties involved in diagnosing and treating these debilitating disorders. For each clinically-recognized class of personality disorders and its subtypes, Millon and his co-authors examine all current schools of thought--including the biological, psychodynamic, interpersonal, cognitive, and biopsychosocial models--on the factors that promote personality dysfunction. And they outline the most successful effective treatment approach for each disorder.

"..you should certainly read what Millon has to say about the personality disorders." (Behavioural & Cognitive Psychotherapy, January 2001)
