I enjoyed the humor he incorporated into his no-nonsense descriptions of personality disorders. His writing style, clear distinctions, and the consistent organizational structure of each chapter made the text accessible for first time reading and for use as a resource in the future. Although this is not my area of expertise, I would highly recommend it to anyone who works within this discipline.
