Through dozens of tables, illustrative figures, and real\-life case examples, established experts in the field, as well as a new generation of scientists, examine clinical concepts; risk factors for and impact of personality disorders; treatment options (including a new chapter on early identification of borderline psychopathology in children); special populations; and future directions for the field.\n\nFor clinicians looking to remain at the forefront of a rapidly changing and developing field, there is no resource more comprehensive or essential.
