Obsessive-Compulsive Spectrum Disorders:

This cutting-edge new volume comprises a selection of review articles carefully culled from the proceedings of the conference "Obsessive-Compulsive Behavior Spectrum Disorders: Refining the Research Agenda for DSM-V," one of a series convened by the American Psychiatric Association in collaboration with the World Health Organization and the U.S. National Institutes of Health to address the future of psychiatric diagnosis. The book reflects the conference's focus on those disorders that cross current diagnostic categories and identifies and analyzes the changing definitions, boundaries, and linkages among diverse conditions characterized by obsessive-compulsive behaviors.
