Reviews:

• Focusing on terms, disorders, treatments, and issues, this resource explores mental health and wellness in an in-depth but accessible way....[E]ach volume manages to add another layer to the understanding of this nebulous subject. The simple presentation, full of personal accounts, photographs, and examples, makes this set a good selection for libraries looking for a general overview of mental health....[I]t is perfect for smaller research projects or general interest.

• [L]ogically organized, well-written and audience-appropriate. There is enough information in A Student's Guide to Mental Health and Wellness to give a reader a general sense of the mental health profession and some of the related current issues. Recommended for junior high school students and for public libraries.
  —E-Streams March 2004

• This accesible set examines the evolution of psychology from its earliest roots to its contemporary view as a well-established and respected science....An excellent purchase on an often-requested topic for students, researchers, and general readers.
