Mindfulness and Acceptance

“One of the most important treatment developments in recent years has been the theoretical and empirical elaboration of mindfulness and acceptance into evidence-based, cognitive-behavioral protocols. …Anyone seeking to remain up to date on the applications of these exciting new procedures with a variety of client problems will want to have this book close at hand.” - David H. Barlow, Center for Anxiety and Related Disorders and Department of Psychology, Boston University, USA “This book will be of interest to all mental health professionals concerned with enhancing therapeutic change in their patients and with furthering their own personal development. Provocative and at times very wise, this is ‘must’ reading for researchers and clinicians alike, inviting critical consideration of new and promising ideas and procedures. It is an appropriate text for graduate-level courses in psychotherapy, particularly within clinical psychology programs, and would serve as an excellent basis for a special-topic seminar on mindfulness and acceptance therapies.” - Gerald C. Davison, Department of Psychology, University of Southern California, USA “A well-organized, visionary, and pragmatic presentation of multiple new concepts…This book is one not only to read but also to keep on the shelf for reopening by psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, nurses, and other mental health clinicians who treat, teach, and just enjoy a good adventure of expanding the mind.” - Psychiatric Services
