"This book will serve as a handy reference for multi-disciplinary clinicians with cardiac patients and has already proved useful to my everyday practice." (Psychological Medicine, June 2013) "Overall, the chapters are well written and extremely pertinent for psychologists in cardiac settings. The authors draw attention to a wide array of problems and they propose concrete solutions for clinicians working with cardiac patients. They cite pertinent research and they underscore the lack of sufficient empirical evidence where such penuries exist, all of which is helpful to clinicians and researchers in the field." (Canadian Psychology, 2012) “This book is revolutionary in its organized and detailed presentation. Its unique approach to describing the evidence-based literature while using cases and references will deepen readers' understanding of widely researched topics in the areas of psychiatric disorders and cardiovascular disease.”  (Doody’s, 26 October 2012)“This volume is a Herculean effort to assist psychiatrists in understanding the pathophysiology of cardiovascular disease and recognizing the unique challenges for patients and physicians alike.  It is a valuable resource not only for the consultation-liaison psychiatrist, but for any mental health practitioner, primary care physician, or cardiologist.”  (Journal of Clinical Psychiatry, 7 July 2012)“The book is concisely and clearly written and contains numerous references.”  (Book News, 1 April 2012)
