It is hard to imagine a more comprehensive text on counselling and therapy than Richard Nelson-Jones 5th edition of this hugely important book. The author has combined the skills of detailed, up-to-date scholarship with very clear writing. The book is open to a wide readership: from students and researchers at all levels, to practitioners and their clients. I have admired and used Nelson-Jones' work for many years. This latest book is an immense achievement. - Emeritus Professor Philip Burnard, Cardiff University, Wales
This updated and expanded 5th Edition from Richard Nelson Jones, surely now makes this book a 'classic' in psychotherapy literature. Of particular interest in the new edition is the expansion of chapters on CBT to include both behavioural activation and mindfulness. Presented with the familiar clarity that Richard Nelson Jones is so well known for, this text is a 'must' for both undergraduate and postgraduate psychotherapy modules. - Ian W Ross, University of Chester
