Mental Disorders and DSM IV

The modern view of mental disorder has evolved greatly over the last
century. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of mental disorders (DSM)
is on its fourth revision, and it is the main guide that medical
professionals use in communicating information about mental illness. This
discussion will cover a brief history of the document, a survey of the
major controversies involving it, and the issues surrounding its future.
