The Weave Library
Field guides and references written in practice, for the people who do the work and the people living through it. Most are free to read and download.

Three references built in practice: how to take the history, how to code it, and how to treat it. Slide through, then open any to read.
For Clinicians · Adult Psychiatry
Every question worth asking, in the order a good clinician asks it.
A complete reference for the psychiatric history and mental state examination, built to the NIMHANS proforma and aligned to the RGUHS MD exit exam. Four hundred pages that move from the opening question to the formulation, with the clinical reasoning that holds them together. Written to pass the exam, and to stay on your desk for the decade of practice after it.
For Clinicians · Diagnostic Coding
A Resident's Coding Guide
Three manuals, one spine: read across from any code and see exactly what changed.
A coding concordance that sets ICD-10, ICD-11 and DSM-5-TR side by side, in ICD-10 (F-block) order, so a clinician fluent in one can read straight across to the others. Every F-block worked card by card, near-verbatim to the source texts, with a coding companion for comorbidities, post-coordination and the codes beyond the mental chapter, and clickable alphabetical and crosswalk indices. Built for the resident sitting an exit exam in one classification while training in another.
For Clinicians · Treatment Guidelines
Every major treatment guideline, set side by side. An India-first comparison.
Where the guidelines agree, where they diverge, and what is actually prescribable in India.
Twenty-one disorder chapters and ten cross-cutting therapeutics that lay the world's treatment guidelines side by side, by disorder and by phase, harmonising a dozen grading languages onto one five-point key with every body's own native grade kept beneath it. A drug atlas then runs from the drug outward, by class and by condition, and an India-first lens (DCGI approval, brand availability, NDPS scheduling and cost) runs throughout. Built for the resident who wants to see, at a glance, where the agreement is firmest and where judgement is needed.
For Clinicians · Descriptive Psychopathology
The descriptive tradition, in twelve chapters
The phenomenology set out the way a mental state is actually read, from consciousness to personality.
A companion for descriptive psychopathology, compiled across postgraduate training and drawn from the classical tradition of Fish, Sims, and Jaspers. Twelve chapters move in the order a mental state is examined: consciousness, perception, thought, speech, emotion, the self, memory, motor behaviour, and personality, each with its disorders, the history that shaped the concept, and the exam points that get tested. Built for quick revision on a clinical posting and the night before a viva.
Aporia · Clinical Dilemmas
Short essays on the decisions that fork a patient's life. Slide through, then read online or take the PDF.

For Clinicians · Dimensional Psychiatry
A Field Guide to Dimensional Psychiatry
Read the patient the way the field actually thinks now, not the way the textbook still teaches.
A teaching text, not a reference book: the lens you put on before you reach for the checklist. Indian training still defaults to the DSM-5 categories; academic psychiatry has moved past them. This book teaches the dimensional reading in plain language, six spectra, a general factor of psychopathology, an eight-domain mental state examination, all held together by Bayesian reasoning, then carries it into three rooms: the casualty at two in the morning, the Wednesday-morning clinic, the post-operative surgical ward.
