Included in the book's many useful and engaging features are psychoeducation checklists, show more therapeutic dialogues, NCLEX notes, vignettes of famous people with mental disorders, research for best practice boxes, and illustrations showing the interrelationship of the biologic, psychological, and social domains of mental health and illness.
