The sixth edition of Barlow's handbook is an essential resource for anyone wanting a deep dive into the latest developments in evidence-based practice for a wide variety of clinical concerns. Twenty-five years after formalizing the evidence-based practice movement within clinical psychology, Barlow has once again masterfully curated an up-to-date reference written by the field's leading clinical scientists. The sixth edition offers fresh insights, critical advances, and rich examples. Whether you are a graduate student, a clinical researcher, or a seasoned practitioner, this book should always be within arm's reach. --Bruce F. Chorpita, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of California, Los Angeles; President, PracticeWise I have used this valuable text in my graduate classes since the first edition was published in 1985. Chapters present concise summaries of the theory and empirical evidence for the respective interventions, along with insightful explanations of how they are conducted. With the sixth edition, Barlow has again provided a rare gem that helps students and practicing clinicians understand how evidence-based treatments are actually implemented with clients. The book includes updated chapters on well-established approaches presented in previous editions, as well as more recent developments, such as process-based therapy and the transdiagnostic treatment of self-injurious thoughts and behaviors. --Leonard A. Doerfler, PhD, Professor and Director, Clinical Counseling Psychology Program, Assumption University A marvelous presentation of the latest and most clinically applicable evidence-based practices, including cognitive, behavioral, and interpersonal approaches. Revised and new chapters are written by the best and brightest in the field, including many those who developed the respective interventions. The sixth edition of the Handbook is suitable for both students in training and experienced practitioners who want to burnish their clinical skills. There is no better collection that highlights how the field developed, where it currently is, and where it is going to be in the future. I could not recommend it more strongly. --Steven D. Hollon, PhD, Gertrude Conaway Vanderbilt Professor of Psychology, Vanderbilt University
