Critics Review
“This volume provides examples of case formulations representing the most common mental health problems. Each case is described, and then followed by two contrasting formulations and a commentary from a different perspective. These examples provide readers with clear models of case formulations, and highlight the different constructs and world views that characterize alternate theoretical approaches to case formulation.” (Book News, December 2009)
