"A masterful compilation illustrating cognitive therapy's impact on psychiatry and clinical psychology. The widespread application of cognitive therapy across continents and syndromes is indicative of the wide dissemination of this particular treatment modality. The broad spectrum is reflected in the adaptations of this treatment that extend across the lifespan." --David J. Kupfer, MD
"Aaron T. Beck has laid the foundation for an empirical, testable form of psychotherapy which is destined to be practiced well into the next century. It is a form of therapy that can be applied to a wide range of problems....[This book presents] a stimulating and wide-ranging set of chapters from both sides of the Atlantic Ocean....It describes progress being made in cognitive psychotherapy across a wide range of problems seen in clinical work." --Sir David Goldberg, DM, FRCP
