Mental Imagery and Memory in Psychopathology

Imagery work can now be regarded as the leading edge of development in cognitive therapy. And this volume is at the very leading edge of imagery work... This is a landmark publication in the field of imagery and psychopathology, and is likely to be the springboard for a whole new wave of research. It will appeal in particular to clinicians with a fascination for a genuinely exciting field, and to ersearchers who wish to expand upon the pioneering work of the present authors. - James Bennett Levy, Oxford Cognitive therapy Centre, in Reviews for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapy 2006
