Reviews

"""As the first fully realized manual guiding CT for depression, this work can be said without hyperbole to have revolutionized the field of psychotherapy. Now a new generation of psychotherapists will benefit greatly from this updated and expanded second edition that integrates the considerable wisdom acquired in the ensuing decades. Beck contributed substantially to this revision before his death at age 100, and his coauthors include the leading authorities in CT today. Every clinician treating depression will benefit from this easy-to-follow CT guide.""/m-/David H. Barlow, PhD, ABPP, Professor Emeritus of Psychology and Psychiatry and Founder, Center for Anxiety and Related Disorders, Boston University ""This eagerly awaited second edition brings the field up to date with an integration of theory, research, and practice. The theme of helping people with depression shift from seeing themselves as incompetent or defective to seeing their difficulties as resulting from use of ineffective strategies is a welcome reframing of depression treatment. Even experienced cognitive therapists will find guidance to improve their effectiveness and correct 'drift' from best practices.""--Christine A. Padesky, PhD, author of The Clinician’s Guide to CBT Using Mind Over Mood ""The second edition of this seminal text has been extensively rewritten to include numerous theoretical, research, and clinical advances. The review of treatment outcome research since the original edition--written by luminaries in the field who had a large part in shaping these discoveries--makes the book extremely worthwhile on its own. The addition of practical demonstrations, including an extensive case example, only adds to the book's utility as a teaching tool. This is an ideal text for undergraduate classes such as Introduction to Clinical Psychology, as well as graduate courses addressing evidence-based therapeutic techniques, clinical conceptualization, or historical developments in psychosocial intervention.""--John Young, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of Mississippi-"

John Rush, MD, ABPN, is Professor Emeritus at Duke–National University of Singapore and Adjunct Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Duke University. His work has led to the development, evaluation, and implementation of measurement-based care; clinical practice guidelines; and the recognition and management of difficult-to-treat depressions. Brian F. Shaw, PhD, is CEO of Continicare Corporation, a digital therapeutics company that provides mental health assessments and cognitive-behavioral therapy interventions. A Fellow of the Canadian Psychological Association, Dr. Shaw has conducted research on cognitive factors as a risk for depressive and anxiety disorders and on therapist competency and treatment outcomes in cognitive therapy. Gary Emery, PhD, is a clinical psychologist with over 50 years in professional practice. One of the original authors of the cognitive therapy treatment manual for depression, he also collaborated with Aaron T. Beck on the first major cognitive therapy treatment manual for anxiety disorders. Robert J.

His trials comparing cognitive therapy to medications for severe depression have been published in the American Journal of Psychiatry and the Archives of General Psychiatry, and JAMA Psychiatry. Steven D. Hollon, PhD, is the Gertrude Conaway Vanderbilt Professor of Psychology at Vanderbilt University. Dr. Hollon’s work has focused on the treatment and prevention of depression and has shown cognitive therapy to be as efficacious as antidepressant medications in the acute treatment of severe depression, with more enduring effects.
