Web site says access card is included but in the fine print of the rental agreement it states there is no guarantee. MOST LIKELY IT WILL NOT BE THERE. Do not rent this OR ANY OTHER book from B&N if you need the CD or access card/code.

A textbook that eliminates the traditional compartmentalized approach to psychopathology in favor of an integrative approach which demonstrates that disorders are multiply determined by biological, psychological, social, cultural, familial, and political forces. It contains the final DSM-IV criteria, including what are, in some cases, substantial changes from the draft criteria published in March 1993. Annotation c.
