Abstract

In the preface to the fifth (last) German edition of his manual, the author points out that in this edition his textbook has undergone significant and substantial changes, representing the last breakthrough transition from a symptomatological way of presenting a clinical study. In view of this, the author, when presenting, pays the main attention to the causes, course and outcome of mental disorders, pushing back into the background the meaning of external signs of mental illness. Since the Russian translation is delivered from the last German edition, it is likely to carry all the features of this edition, indicated by the author in the preface.
