I had to purchase this new edition for my Clinical and Abnormal class this fall semester. I understand the need to update this textbook because the updated DSM-5. My gripe is with the shipping: "Usually ships within 1 to 3 weeks." School starts for the CSU system August 26th so I had to purchase 1 day shipping which costs about $20 extra. With the textbook being $142.50 to begin with my total ended up being over $160 with tax...FOR ONE BOOK, FOR ONE CLASS (I'm taking 5 classes this semester so imagine if they all were that amount). Even with the 1 day shipping the estimated delivery is AUGUST 14, 2013 - WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 28, 2013 BY 8:00PM (I ordered it August 5). So for me it should work out (even if it is delivered on the 28th, I am missing only 2 days with it). But if you need this book for your psych class and haven't ordered it yet, you could be without the textbook for up to 3 weeks and that is just not acceptable. I'm sure the content is well written, easy to understand, and accurate, but the updates better be worth the price.
Also just a side note: I had to purchase this new because of the updates and my professor insisted we get the new one, but I almost never purchase new textbooks. It's a rip off and college students have enough expenses to deal with. Please rent your textbooks and save yourself a lot of money.
UPDATE AUG 19: I decided to cancel my order and order it from a different site because they notified me it would take longer to deliver than they expected and it would not have arrived on time.

As advertised and a very helpful book to supplement the new DSM-V. Many changes to developmental disorders compared with the former edition
