This is a ground-breaking book for the whole future of person-centred theory and practice. Until fairly recently the psychiatric and psychotherapeutic world dismissed the person-centred approach as not relevant for work with people with mental health diagnoses. The comprehensive collection of articles by international authors covers a range of ways in which person-centred theorists and practitioners and the closely allied positive psychologists bridge the gap between person-centred theory and practice and the medicalised world of psychiatry - I stronly recommend this book. Val Simanowitz, Counsellor and trainer. Therapy Today (UK) December 2005.
