Product Description

Review
"If there were only one reason to look at this book, it would be because of the wealth of information found in the overviews of cognitive therapy throughout the years....A second reason why this work is important is its strength in both theoretical and empirical issues. Researchers and practitioners will find this text an excellent reference source of empirical support for cognitive therapy approaches to clinical and personality disorders....A third and most important reason for reading this book is to be found in Salkovski's epilogue that allows us a glimpse into the life of A.T. Beck." --"Journal of Cognitive Psychotherapy"
"Salkovskis...assembled a stellar group of theorists, researchers, and therapists to contribute....Will appeal particularly to therapists who apply the principles of cognitive therapy to many different kinds of problems, as well as to the rarer therapist who specializes in cognitive therapy for a particular disorder....Should be required reading by all psychotherapists, as well as by students in psychotherapy training, and their supervisors." --"Contemporary Psychology"
"This erudite text...[brings] together many of the foremost researchers and clinicians in the field....The work achieves its goal of mapping the frontiers of cognitive therapy." --"Psychiatric Services"
"Due to the scope of topics reviewed and the revisions in cognitive theory, practice, and applications, this publication is a valuable resource for all psychological clinicians, students and researchers." --"Biological Abstracts/RRM (Reports, Reviews, Meetings)"
"Selected by Doody's Rating Service as one of the Best Health Sciences Book of 1996"


Product Description
Bringing together cognitive therapy clinicians, researchers, and theoreticians, this volume integrates the latest findings on the conceptualization and treatment of a range of psychological and psychiatric problems. From depression and anxiety, to eating disorders, hypochondriasis, obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic, personality disorders, sexual problems, social phobia, and substance abuse, authors discuss the needs of individual patients and structuring effective interventions. Factors such as therapist competencey, the theraputic relationship and empathy are systematially examined. Chapters also consider the specific needs of populations such as children and adolescents and the mentally ill.

4.0 out of 5 stars A useful and current guide to CBT, 30 Jul 2001
By A Customer
This book has 21 chapters, collectively covering the areas in which cognitive therapy is used to treat psychological distress. Some of the chapters are more interesting than others. The majority have a clear focus on clinical research. In places practical applications are covered, for example the chapter on social phobia has an excellent case study at the end. This is not the case for all chapters. For example, the long chapter on eating disorders seems to assume prior knowledge.

All in all the book really does bring you up to date and opens your mind to the numerous domains that cognitive therapy can be applied. Each chapter is also well referenced so that you can follow up as required.

The reader desiring a more clinical feel however may prefer Clarke and Fairburn's 'Science and practice of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy'. Although the book under review is more comprehensive the Clarke and Fairburn book is more clinical.
