Review
'Anyone who struggles with their inner critic should make sure to read this book. Professor Gilbert writes in a masterly fashion about compassionate mind training - an innovative approach which is likely to grow in importance over the next decade as the evidence for its benefit continues to build.' - David Veale, President British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies 2006-8. <br/><br/> 'Paul Gilbert is one of the most brilliant scientists studying compassion today. In this wonderful book, he makes his theories very accessible and down-to-earth. You feel like you re having a chat in his living-room with a warm cup of tea. I also love his easy-to-follow exercises, which offer concrete ways to help you develop greater compassion in daily life.' - Kristin Neff, Associate Professor of Human Development, University of Texas at Austin. <br/><br/> 'Like so frequently in the past, Paul Gilbert has come forth again with a book about the mind, its unused potential, and how to harness that potential to one s and others benefit. The Compassionate Mind is a roadmap to compassion for the self and towards others. It is a book for those curious enough to explore their hidden potential to attain a special kind of humanness and happiness. A 10 on a scale of 1 to 10.' - Michael McGuire, author Darwinian Psychiatry <br/><br/> 'A useful addition to any nursing library and ... of interest to anyone with a concern for mental health issues'. --Learning Disability Practice
