Reviews
This is another classic book in the Beckian' style--scholarly and eminently readable, a superb and much needed treatment guide. Breaking new ground again in this unusually challenging work, Beck, Freeman and their associates have produced an exceptionally useful handbook, not only for those who follow in the cognitive-behavioral tradition, but for all therapists who seek to enrich their insights and methodologies for working with the personality disorders. It is of no small import that the text is a pleasure to read. Clear both in thought and language, it is entirely free of the jargon and obscurities that litter this field. In a matter of particular relevance to my own work, I was especially pleased with the chapter on the avoidant personality; it is the first detailed and sensitively drawn examination of therapeutic issues with this highly troubled group of patients. All in all, the Beck-Freeman volume is a major milestone in the progress of therapy for this large class of difficult-to-treat disorders.'--Theodore Millon, Ph.D., University of Miami and Harvard Medical School, "...the diversity of the authors leads to a richness that is sometimes lacking when a single narrative perspective is applied to so broad a range of clinical presentations....an integrative, pragmatic book, which draws upon cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and even psychodynamic traditions. It is bold and ambitious, and it is necessary reading for those interested in the development of personality disorders, and in the development of personality itself."--Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Book Reviews "The treatment approach is clearly stated. Case examples are included so the reader can see how the cognitive strategy is applied....If you want to know about cognitive therapy as applied to personality disorders, this is the book to read....I really enjoyed this book because it contains the ABC's of cognitive therapy. The case examples are poignant and you can see how cognitive therapy principles are applied with each patient. Many of the authors are household names in the field, prominent experts who know what they are talking about. 4 Stars!"--Doody's Electronic Journal, "Books from Dr. Beck and his associates have invariably displayed originality, scholarship, and depth, as well as profound sensitivity to the problems of patients with all forms of psychological difficulty. In this singular new edition of a classic treatment guide, the authors once again demonstrate their groundbreaking cognitive model of the personality disorders. Presented is an expanded, even more powerful set of extraordinary conceptual and clinical tools. This volume can be recommended enthusiastically to all who work with this difficult patient population, including experienced clinicians as well as novice practitioners and graduate students. Clinically rich, insightful, and humane."--Theodore Millon, PhD, DSc, Institute for Advanced Studies in Personology and Psychopathology "Personality disorders cause untold suffering in millions of people, and empirically supported therapies are almost nonexistent. What is the scientist-practitioner to do? Application of cognitive-behavioral conceptualizations and interventions makes obvious sense. This volume, a revised and updated edition of a classic, is essential reading for students, teachers, clinicians, and researchers who seek to understand and treat these debilitating disorders."--Jacqueline B. Persons, PhD, San Francisco Bay Area Center for Cognitive Therapy and University of California, Berkeley "Remarkably clear and well-articulated, this volume makes substantial new contributions by further elaborating and specifying the cognitive theory of personality disorders, reviewing new research on both the theory and therapy, and providing detailed discussions (with new clinical case illustrations) of assessment and treatment of ten different personality disorders. It also provides recommendations on how to manage the therapeutic relationship and create individualized approaches for particular patients. Informed by the work of thirteen expert practitioners, the volume combines state-of-the art theoretical and technical knowledge with critical clinical experience, judgment, and wisdom. All practitioners of cognitive or behavioral psychotherapy, as well as more psychodynamically oriented clinicians, will benefit immensely from this work, as will clinical psychology students, psychiatric residents, and students in related fields. The clear conceptualization of the personality disorders and practical illustrations of how to apply these concepts in practice will undoubtedly improve the reader's treatment skills, therapeutic results, and day-to-day professional satisfaction."--A. John Rush, MD, Department of Psychiatry, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, "An integrative, pragmatic book, which draws upon cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and even psychodynamic traditions. It is bold and ambitious, and it is necessary reading for those interested in the development of personality disorders, and in the development of personality itself."--Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Book Reviews, An integrative, pragmatic book, which draws upon cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and even psychodynamic traditions. It is bold and ambitious, and it is necessary reading for those interested in the development of personality disorders, and in the development of personality itself., "It's refreshing to find an approach to cognitive therapy that gives full consideration to the real-life, messy issues of feelings, motivations, and even unconscious processes....One has high expectations of a clinical writing team headed by Aaron Beck, whose work in cognitive therapy of depression and anxiety is now classic. This book continues the tradition in the domain of personality disorders. Perhaps its greatest overarching contribution is in emphasizing how good psychotherapy is at once systematic, flexible, and humanistic.' --"Psychotherapy in Private Practice"
