Summary: Therapy explained (finally)
Comment: Written by a clinical psychologist at the Harvard Medical School (Englar) and a psychologist who writes on the behavioral sciences for the New York Times (Goleman). This remarkably thorough handbook provides advice on many aspects of therapy. It covers how to decide whether you need therapy, how to find the right therapist, what to realistically expect out of therapy, how to get the most out of therapy, and how to tell when therapy isn't working.

A unique strength of the book is its lengthy discussion of various types of pathology and how they are generally treated. For each type of pathology, such as anxiety disorders, eating disorders, schizophrenia, depression, substance abuse, alcoholism, somatoform disorders, and so forth, the authors discuss (1) the signs to look for, (2) variations and complications, (3) what therapists recommend, and (4) what you should know about therapy (for that disorder). The book also includes a chapter on psychiatric drugs and appendixes that list self-help groups, therapist referral sources, and other sources of information on mental health care.
