Most of the terms have been newly defined for the second edition, in line with the extensive revisions incorporated in ICD-10. Each term is defined as precisely & concisedly as possible. Where appropriate, the code number of the ICD-10 category in which the term appears is given as part of the entry. Alternative names, synonyms, & near-synonyms are also included. The lexicon represents a major step toward the achievement of an internationally-accepted nomenclature for mental disorders & should find wide application in clinical, teaching & research settings.
