"Given the breadth and balance of coverage, as well as the references for further reading, the text lends itself to a wide audience. Librarians would want such a text in an undergraduate or graduate reference collection. Many of the brief summaries of diagnostic and treatment issues provide a ready reference for advanced undergraduates and graduates. Educators and researchers would find great value in many of the topic areas associated with schools."
