Este libro es el resultado de varias décadas de experiencia de sus autores en el tratamiento e investigación de más de cinco mil casos de Trastornos Obsesivo-Compulsivos (TOC). Debido a que los pensamientos obsesivos, las compulsiones, la duda, las disfunciones motoras y las alteraciones en la percepcion son, a veces, fuente de verguenza para quienes sufren de TOC, es que los autores denominaron a esta enfermedad la epidemia oculta. La acumulacion de sintomas que caracterizan a este Trastorno impide, o al menos dificulta notablemente, el desempeño en las relaciones emocionales y sociales normales, creando dificultades para manejar los eventos de la vida cotidiana con la consecuente repercusion negativa en la vida familiar, escolar y laboral.
