Reviews

The second edition of this handbook represents a monumental effort to capture the breadth and depth of behavior analysis, from the history and philosophy of the field to cutting-edge research on staff training, function-based procedures for treating problem behaviors, and advances in tele-health. Of particular value are chapters on the treatment of drug addiction, pediatric feeding disorders, and behavioral gerontology. The contributors are a virtual 'who's who' in the field who bring the reader up to date on every important topic; their voices come through clearly in each chapter. This comprehensive handbook is an ideal text for a graduate course in ABA and an invaluable reference for practitioners and students. --Jon S. Bailey, PhD, BCBA-D, Professor Emeritus of Psychology, Florida State University
