The International Dictionary of Psychotherapy is the definitive lexicon of the language of psychotherapy. Remarkable in its thoroughness, comprehensive in its scope, authoritative in its content, it is an essential resource for every library and every serious student of psychotherapy. Included are excellent summaries of streams of psychotherapy and research methods. Nardone and Salvini have provided a reference for the ages. --Jeffrey K. Zeig, Ph.D, The Milton H. Erickson Foundation.
Compiling any type of dictionary is a daunting challenge, but the challenge undertaken by Nardone and Salvini to create the International Dictionary of Psychotherapy is especially fraught with potential dangers. Giving concrete and well-informed definitions of concepts and terms that are often abstract and philosophical requires a substantial depth of understanding and a clarity of thought and expression. The authors and their many expert contributors show these characteristics in abundance and are to be congratulated for making the art and science of psychotherapy easier to understand and, therefore, easier to practice well. --Michael D. Yapko, Ph.D., author, Trancework and The Discriminating Therapist.
The authors have compiled a comprehensive integration of terms and concepts pertaining to the various models of psychotherapy that are practiced university. This exhaustive compendium is the most copious work that I have seen to date. The authors are to be commended for producing a valuable contribution to the professional literature. I highly recommend it. --Frank M. Dattilio, PhD ABPP, Department of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School
