Updating The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders

The latest Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, better known as DSM-V, will be landing with a massive thunk on physicians', psychologists' and researchers' desktops in 2012, but until then, the American Psychiatric Association still has a lot of work to do in determining how the guide will be updated. That's because the current DSM-IV came out in 1994. And mercy how the world changes in 18 years. I doubt DSM-VI will wait until 2030.
