Booklist

FYI!!!! Both the Social (In) Justice in Mental Health and DSM-5TR are accessible online within the UNH Library. You may want to purchase a DSM-5TR if you think you will use it in the future, but that is up to you. You might check-out the online formats for both texts to make sure it works for you.
