This comprehensive, accessible and authoritative text is a brilliant blend of theory, method, and practice. Written by an international list of experts, it is up-to-date, scientifically rigorous and yet has plenty of real-life examples. I could not be more positive about the book and placed it immediately on various reading lists.
