Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder is the only book of its kind: a comprehensive, authoritative work designed to be invaluable to clinicians, researchers, and people struggling with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (OCPD) and those who care about them. Unlike existing texts, which focus on only one or a few aspects of OCPD, this book offers a systematic exploration, with chapters on every facet of the disorder from leading experts on scientific techniques, including brain imaging, cognitive testing, and biological markers. OCPD and obsessive-compulsive disorder differ in symptoms and core components but may have a similar presentation, making differential diagnosis challenging. In addition, OCPD may overlap in some particulars or co-occur with other disorders, including hoarding disorder, eating disorders, and impulse control and addictive disorders. Accordingly, the authors offer detailed information to help the reader disentangle and identify these syndromes so that the proper treatment intervention can be initiated. In addition to thorough coverage of OCPD in its pathological form, the book also addresses how OCPD can be adaptive and even useful in some contexts. Each chapter features case examples that make it easy for the reader whether clinician or layperson to understand and contextualize the information, rendering Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder a uniquely useful addition to the psychiatric literature.

Being autistic, to me, means a lot of different things, but one of the best things is that I can be so happy, so enraptured about things no one else understands and so wrapped up in my own joy that, not only does it not matter that no one else shares it, but it can become contagious. This is the part about autism that I can never explain. This is the part I never want to lose.'Julia Bascom's depiction of the joy of autistic obsessions tells a story about autism that is very rarely told. It tells of a world beyond impairments and medical histories, where the multiples of seven can open a floodgate of untranslatable joy, where riding a train can make everything feel perfectly sized and full of light, and where flapping your hands just so amplifies everything you feel. The Obsessive Joy of Autism will resonate powerfully with other autistic people, and encourage those who have a person with autism in their lives to look out for that joy, to chase it, to get obsessed.
