About this product
Product Information
This book offers a rigorous examination of a variety of therapeutic, assessment, and diagnostic techniques in clinical psychology, focusing on practices that are popular and influential but lack a solid grounding in empirical research. Featuring chapters from leading clinical researchers, the text helps professionals and students evaluate the merits of novel and controversial techniques and differentiate between those that can stand up to scientific scrutiny and those that cannot. Reviewed are widely used therapies for alcoholism, infantile autism, and ADHD; the use of EMDR in the treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder; herbal remedies for depression and anxiety; suggestive techniques for memory recovery; and self-help models. Other topics covered include issues surrounding psychological expert testimony, the uses and abuses of projective assessment techniques, and unanswered questions about dissociative identity disorder. Offering a balanced, constructive review of available research, each accessibly written chapter concludes with a glossary of key terms.

Reviews
"Represents a most welcome attempt to separate the wheat from the chaff in mental health practices....Engaging, incisive, and illuminating."--Journal of the American Medical Association, "As a text for students, this book effectively illustrates the importance of becoming an evidence-based practitioner. It inoculates aspiring clinicians against the bandwagon appeal of 'fashionable' interventions and the seductive claims of pseudoscientific treatment studies."--Allen Rubin, PhD, School of Social Work, The University of Texas at Austin "This unique and timely book may avert the advent of the Dark Ages into which the discipline of psychotherapy seems to be heading. By clearly articulating the fundamental differences between 'science' and 'pseudoscience,' it forewarns that anecdotes are not evidence, and demonstrates how to separate fact from conjecture. I cannot think of anyone who would not benefit from a thorough perusal of its contents, but it is particularly essential reading for those conducting any form of counseling or psychotherapy."--Arnold A. Lazarus, PhD, ABPP, Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Psychology, Rutgers University "At last--a book that pulls no punches, names, and isn't afraid to portray junk science for what it is. This will be invaluable reading for anyone in the mental health professions and an essential reference for students."--Harrison G. Pope, Jr., MD, Department of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School "This superb volume is an instant classic and one of the most important books published in the last 20 years in psychology or law. These well written and exhaustively documented chapters provide a much needed antidote to the epidemic of pseudoscience that has too often stained the integrity of the mental health and legal systems. Mental health professionals, lawyers and judges should all view these chapters as essential information for basic professional competence."--R. Christopher Barden, PhD, JD, LP, psychologist, attorney, expert witness, legislative consultant; President, National Association for Consumer Protection in Mental Health, "[An] excellent and important book."--APA Review of Books "...a needed text that would be a valuable asset to student and practitioner alike....Essential reading for any graduate program in clinical psychology dealing with psychotherapy....it is well-priced containing current research on what is and isn't empirically validated. It will make selection of a specific therapeutic procedure a more thoughtful and helpful process."--Child & Family Behavior Therapy "...a unique addition to the literature and...essential reading for anyone practicing or learning to practice clinical psychology...the information contained within this volume is invaluable for consumers of psychological services."--Psychology Research "While the contributors offer compelling and balanced criticisms of these techniques on scientific grounds, the true merit of the text is that it takes preliminary steps to understandwhypseudoscience exists and persists in the 21st century....I would highly recommend it for practitioners, clinical researchers, and graduate students in clinical psychology, social work, or counseling."--Journal of Psychosomatic Research "This is clearly a text that should be read by every social worker and social work student. Further, it should be mandated reading for anyone who holds a position in a mental health professional association, state licensing board, or national accrediting body....an important contribution to the mental health knowledge base."--Journal of Social Work Education Online(JSWE) "...a timely response to the widening scientist-practitioner gap characterising the practice of clinical psychology and the seeming erosion of the scientific foundations of this discipline....mental health Practitioners generally would find the book an excellent reference text, and the book additionally points to other resources and initiatives which can guide such practitioners in implementing evidence-based practices."--Metapsychology Online Book Reviews "This text is fascinating and easy to read....Each chapter closes with a clear summary, a brief glossary, and an extensive bibliography, facilitating ease of use. The 40 contributors are mostly academics, but several practitioners are also represented.Science and Pseudoscience in Clinical Psychologywill be heavily used by mental health professionals and students, and will be very helpful for patients evaluating prospective therapies as well as educated laypersons interested in psychology. Highly recommended for academic, health sciences, and public libraries."--E-Streams, Represents a most welcome attempt to separate the wheat from the chaff in mental health practices....Engaging, incisive, and illuminating., This unique and timely book may avert the advent of the Dark Ages into which the discipline of psychotherapy seems to be heading.

Beyond great price. The media itself (CDs) were in NM (near mint) condition. Packaging was in fair condition, so stating Good in the description was reasonable if not downplaying the media itself. Nothing to complain about. Shipping was free and arrived exactly a week later (5 business days). Would definitely recommend and do business with seller again! A++

SecondSalecom is one of my go to sellers, because they have a large selection and I can usually find the book or movie that I want from them at a low price if not the lowest price on eBay. Also, when I buy three books/movies I get a fourth book/movie free. Shipping is also free. This was a great transaction. The DVD was packaged well, shipped promptly and is just as described. I will be back to buy again. Thank you!!
