“Psychiatrists Revise the Book of Human Troubles”
The New York Times on Thursday, Dec. 18, published a story about the 2012 revision of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM-V) - what the newspaper called "the book of human troubles." This is the publication in which we’re seeking diagnostic recognition for Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD).
