Cognitive Therapy across the Lifespan

'… an excellent introduction to the field … Perhaps the most important contribution of this volume, however, is found in the discerning, critical stance taken by the contributors. ... This book unflinchingly examines the strengths and weaknessess of cognitive approaches to psychotherapy and the empirical foundations on which they stand. … This is a remarkable and valuable volume.' Aaron T. Beck
