Summary: AUTHOR REVIEW - EXCELLENT
Comment: I read "The Broken Mirror" by Katharine A. Phillips and considered the book to be most informative. I have seen this problem in several of my clients and have started recommending the book as a resource for help. The author did a great job uncovering the root causes behind this problem and offered keen insight into medical and theraputic treatments.

Summary: " The Broken Mirror's" Cloudy Picture
Comment: "The Broken Mirror" is clearly and concisely written, gives numerous case studies and takes the reader through the diagnostic reasoning in each case. But, far too much information is rehashed, and the early chapters aren't substantively different than the latter chapters. For example, the definition of the disease is repeated practially hundreds of times, often with a slightly different meaning, and many of the case studies are too similar to offer new insights.

This is not a self-help book, but it's a far cry from a textbook.

Rating: 3
Summary: A good start
Comment: The book itself provides an indepth look at BDD, my wife was recently diagnosed with the disorder. However, the book simply tells you about the symptoms and what the patient is going through. It provide little insight on obtaining help. My wife met with the author Katherine Phillips but was only offered a place in her new study for her new book. I feel that writing about the disorder is just that. Nobody seems to be offering a solution. For the price, it's a good book to share with freinds and family to help them understand the pain and stress the disorder puts on everday life. Thanks.
