Handbook of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies (Hardcover, 2nd edition)

Fully revised and updated, the second edition of this authoritative handbook reflects the continuing evolution of the field of cognitive-behavioural therapies over the last decade of the 20th century. The volume brings together established experts to review the theories, research, and treatment methodologies associated with the major cognitive-behavioural models. Part one describes the historical foundations and basic principles concerned. Extensively rewritten chapters cover such topics as assessment strategies and developments in the cognitive sciences, with new chapters added on case formulation and psychotherapy integration. The second part of the book comprises detailed presentations of specific treatment approaches: cognitive therapy; rational-emotive behavior therapy; self-management approaches; problem-solving therapies; and child and adolescent applications. Chapters on each model combine thorough coverage of theory and research with clinical vignettes.
