Classifications of Bipolar Disorder
Researchers, clinicians, and practitioners must consider a wide array of factors in order to codify each diagnosis. In response, classification systems, subsets and specifiers have been developed in an attempt to standardize the diagnostic process.

The Evolving Bipolar Spectrum
This article argues for the necessity of a partial return to Kraepelin's broad concept of manic-depressive illness, and proposes definitions--and provides prototypical cases--to illustrate the rich clinical phenomenology of bipolar subtypes I through IV.

The Prevalent Clinical Spectrum of Bipolar Disorders
Based on the author's work and that of collaborators, as well as other contemporaneous research, this article reaffirms the existence of a broad bipolar spectrum between the extremes of psychotic manic-depressive illness and strictly defined unipolar depression.
