Abstract

On the surface, reviewing a dictionary seems like a relatively straightforward task. The book is an extensive compilation of terms used in psychology and psychiatry. The dictionary provides a comprehensive listing of the English–Spanish translation equivalents that can be useful to psychologists and psychiatrists working in increasingly bilingual environments. This book could facilitate professional communications across the English–Spanish divide.
