Product Description

Review

'It opens up the connections between the cognitive, the humanistic and the Buddhist in a remarkable way... a very useful book for anyone who wanted to introduce humanistic or transpersonal imagery techniques into the medical NHS context.' - John Rowan, BACP North London Magazine

'Gilbert’s Compassion is a landmark publication. It represents a courageous and visionary endeavour to produce an edited volume that integrates Buddhism with scientific psychology.' - PsycCRITIQUES

'Paul Gilbert's edited volume, Compassion: Conceptualisations, Research and Use in Psychotherapy is a significant and timely addition to the canon of cognitive-behavioral practice literature....This text demonstrates the power and possibility of cognitive therapy as it address and integrates innovations and frontiers both recent and ancient...Any therapist interested in exploring the frontiers of the cognitive-behavioral tradition would be well advised to place this text quite high on their reading list.' - Dennis Tirch, Ph.D., American Institute for Cognitive Therapy, CBTBR 2006, Vol.2, No. 8

'Compassion acts as a wedge, opening the door to a more intrapersonal and enlightening lifestyle... it will open minds to new possibilities and may even put a smile on reader's faces' - British Journal of Guidance and Counselling

Product Description
What is compassion, how does it affect the quality of our lives and how can we develop compassion for ourselves and others? Humans are capable of extreme cruelty but also considerable compassion.

5.0 out of 5 stars Compassion, 6 Dec 2005

By A Customer

An excellent book for practitioners and others interested in Compassion.
Edited by the wonderful Paul Gilbert, this is a book that I have found extreemely useful. Compassion can be used specifcally for work with people who have survived abusive experiences, and also for those experiencing shame, self-attacking identities and low self esteem.
It reminded me, that without a compassionate approach to working with people - all your other professional skills are invalid. Since refocussing my work - I have seen a change in my therapuetic relationship with clients, their ability to engage with therapy and thier faith in the possibility of change.
