 This chapter provides a useful insight into the process of diagnosis, including the conceptual coherence and validity of diagnostic systems:Boyle, M. (1999) ‘Diagnosis’, in Newnes, C., Holmes, G. and Dunn, C. (eds.) This is madness: a critical look at psychiatry and the future of mental health services. Ross-on-Wye: PCCS Books, pp. 75–90.

 This is a short, accessible introduction to some of the debates in the chapter. Chapters 3–6 are particularly useful:Johnstone, L. (2014) A straight talking introduction to psychiatric diagnosis. Ross-on-Wye: PCCS Books.
