Choice Review
This is the definitive work on cognitive behavioral therapies (CBT). Marked by high scientific standards, the volume's 14 essays look at the origins of CBT and current formulations, in research and practice, of professionals. Rather than focusing on specific diagnostic categories, Dobson (clinical psychology, Univ. of Calgary, Canada) and his 37 fellow contributors describe CBT processes associated with positive outcomes and present evidence of the widespread appeal of CBT--it is "the leading theoretical orientation" of health care professionals; it is "more efficacious than other systems of therapy." These and other sweeping and exclusive statements lead this reviewer to voice two cautions: first, basic CBT concepts (cognition, emotion, behavior, evidence-based practice, problem solving) are used by practitioners outside the "CBT family," including psychoanalysts, humanists, Gestalt therapists, and transactional analysts. Second, an encounter between a therapist who expresses rational thought and a client who expresses irrational thought must be looked at in terms of the therapist's "power over" position, which may interfere with his or her sensitivity to client resistance and capacity to respond to it. Omission of discussion of the latter, a crucial issue, represents a gap in the contents of what is otherwise an extremely important resource. Summing Up: Essential. Graduate students, researchers, faculty, professionals. D. Sydiaha emeritus, University of Saskatchewan
