Doody Reviews
Reviewer: Christopher J. Graver, PhD (Madigan Army Medical Center)Description: Originally published in 1988 when there was an identified gap in the book literature about cognitive-behavioral therapies, this book continues to evolve in its third edition.
Purpose: This edition is aimed at updating the literature, adding new topics, and providing an overview of this important topic.
Audience: This book will be of interest to psychologists, psychiatrists, and other allied behavioral health providers, as well as students of these disciplines. The editor and contributing authors are well published and clinically known in the field.
Features: There are a few notable updates to the third edition. It now includes discussion of acceptance-based and schema-focused therapies, given their growing popularity and interest in the literature. A chapter on the use of CBT techniques in diverse populations has been added, but this is a short chapter that merely presents the issues rather that delving deeply into them and providing specific suggestions for providers. The final major update is a review of the scientific literature on the efficacy of CBT. This covers a wide variety of disorders from the typical mood disorders to schizophrenia and personality disorders. A succinct table at the end of the chapter provides a summary of the findings. The book continues to provide useful information on CBT approaches in the form of treatment overviews and case examples. It does not, however, provide step-by-step instructions for conducting CBT. The references have clearly been updated since the previous edition, even in chapters that have been maintained since the beginning, making this a useful new edition.
Assessment: This book continues the tradition of providing a concise overview of various aspects of CBT, a review of the literature, and important points to consider in therapy delivery. The third edition is updated and adds some welcome chapters to round out its robust coverage.

"Dobson's revision of this classic volume provides a solid resource for psychologists and students of psychology. Many of us find that we become highly focused on our specific clinical work, teaching, and research, and it is easy to feel out of touch with the broader developments in the field. It is very helpful to pick up a resource such as this one to remind ourselves of the bigger picture in this important and influential treatment approach. Dobson has chosen authors for each topic who are key figures in the development of the approaches covered in their chapters. This choice of authors shows in the quality of the presentations and the familiarity with the key issues in each area....Will be very useful in graduate courses on CBT and in settings where clinical students are supervised. Practitioners and students with an interest in CBT will find it very helpful as a guide to the broad range of approaches and issues in CBT."--Canadian Psychology
From the Publisher
"The third edition of this handbook attains the same high standards of scientific rigor, clinical breadth, and practical relevance that have made prior editions so successful and authoritative. Providing a highly informative integration of science and practice, chapters are written by the leading experts on CBT. This volume is a 'must read' for psychotherapy students being introduced to CBT and for practitioners who need a concise, balanced, and informative review of the latest advances."--David A. Clark, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of New Brunswick, Canada
"Even seasoned clinicians would benefit from reading this volume, which reviews CBT's roots and presents current thinking from top practitioners and researchers. Chapters thoroughly introduce cognitive and behavioral methods and provide detailed descriptions of the most prominent therapies. Unlike other CBT books that are organized around specific diagnoses, this book disentangles the treatments from the disorders. Its special strength lies in its broader focus on the processes involved in delivering the very best CBT interventions."--Jerusha Detweiler-Bedell, PhD, Department of Psychology, Lewis & Clark College
"The large body of research testing the effectiveness of CBT is one of the field's strengths. In this volume, Dobson and his colleagues offer an up-to-date, detailed review of CBT research and practice, including valuable new chapters. This volume is an excellent text for graduate courses and will provide clinicians with up-to-date coverage of clinical techniques and their empirical bases."--James Pretzer, PhD, Director, Cleveland Center for Cognitive Therapy
"This extremely well-written volume provides sophisticated coverage of the broad array of cognitive-behavioral therapies. It begins by reviewing the many different strands of CBT and the findings from treatment outcome studies, and offers excellent discussions of case conceptualization and cognitive assessment. These introductory sections form a strong base for chapters on the theory and techniques of the various CBT approaches. Unique strengths include the book's transdiagnostic approach to treatment, its cutting-edge coverage of cognitive science, and the chapters on newer therapies. Highly recommended as a graduate psychotherapy text."--Sheri L. Johnson, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of California, Berkeley

Mostly Canadian and US psychologists introduce cognitive-behavioral therapies from a theoretical perspective in order to give beginners a conceptual grounding for specific techniques. They begin with such conceptual matters as issues and methods in cognitive assessment and psychotherapy integration. Then they look at specific therapies, including self-management, and rational emotive. The second edition incorporates developments in the profession over the past 13 years. Annotation c.
