Clinical Psychology

Clinical Psychology distinguishes itself from other core texts for advanced undergraduate clinical psychology courses by presenting multiple clinical perspectives evenhandedly and by emphasizing multicultural issues.

Written in an academic yet accessible style, Clinical Psychology covers all subfields of clinical psychology thoroughly, including the history and current state of the field, clinical assessment, psychotherapy, ethical and professional issues, and specialized topics such as forensic and health psychology. In particular, the subfield that constitutes the primary interest of students and the primary activity of clinical psychologists-psychotherapy-is covered broadly in Clinical Psychology.

Instructors and students are provided with a balanced approach to clinical psychology that communicates sophisticated ideas in a balanced, scholarly, accessible way, and which weaves an appreciation for cultural issues throughout its chapters.
