Considering I had undergraduate textbooks in that price range I don't think it's too ridiculous. Currently I use the DSM-IV code wiki page, and I imagine that's what I'll continue to use after the V comes out. I'm sure my office will buy a communal copy for staff to refer to.

That is freaking ridiculous.

Someone's gotta pay for all of that research on Axis II that they completely trashed. 🙄

So what would be wrong with using ICD-10 for purposes other than codes?

MDs get their copies for free from drug reps

Have you ever seen a drug rep? Yuck isn't typically the first thing on my mind.
