The leaders in the field combine a critical review of the literature with a practical consideration of clinical issues and cases. Practitioners and researchers alike will find this text a major asset.' - Donald Meichenbaum, PhD

'Dattilio, Freeman, and their authoritative contributing authors have done a beautiful job of updating this comprehensive book. The result is an excellent, thoroughgoing review of the main psychological problems in crisis intervention and related fields. If there is anything important that is missing from this unusual compilation of various modes of crisis intervention, I couldn't find it. A remarkably good anthology!' - Albert Ellis, PhD
