Science and Practice of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy

In a relatively short period of time, cognitive behaviour therapy has become the leading psychotherapy in most Western countries. Much of the appeal and success of cognitive behaviour therapy is due to the close links between science and practice which characterise the cognitive behaviour therapy movement and to the demonstrated effectiveness of the treatment approach.

This book, which is divided into two parts, illustrates the links between science and practice in modern Cognitive Behaviour Therapy.
