"Cognitive Therapy of Anxiety Disorders will serve as a master text on the overall direction in which this work should be heading. It should also serve as a solid starting point for other writers, such as myself, who are working towards describing more fully what CBT looks like in practice -- warts and all!" - Frank Wills, Healthcare Counselling and Psychotherapy Journal, July 2010 "The authors provide students and practitioners with the strong theoretical base that is a sine qua non for effective treatment. They show how cognition links up with multiple other etiological factors in anxiety and hence can serve well as a treatment target and focus. Marvelous, instructive clinical pearls accompany each theoretical point. An excellent chapter on assessment contains all the necessary rating forms needed for patient evaluation and monitoring of outcomes. Treatment techniques are described in depth; the book concludes with outstanding disorder-specific chapters. The definitive text." - Peter P. Roy-Byrne, Professor and Vice Chair, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, University of Washington School of Medicine at Harborview Medical Center, USA
