Psychiatry is a subtle science in which differential diagnosis can be particularly challenging. This encyclopedic seven-part series, filmed in the U.K., offers a practical overview of the broad spectrum of mental disorders. Programs one through six combine real doctor/patient interviews with descriptions of the etiology and manifestation of each illness under examination—including the tricky similarities and key differences that are crucial for accurate diagnosis. Program seven, composed exclusively of doctor/patient interviews, provides students and clinicians alike the chance to apply their knowledge of the DSM-IV and form their own differential diagnoses. This series is a powerful gateway to a deeper understanding of the nuances of psychiatric medicine. 7-part series, 26-46 minutes each.
