About This Item
Pacific Grove, CA: Brooks / Cole, 1990. Hardback octavo, dustjacket, very good condition (in very good dustjacket), minor edgewear, protected by removable semiarchival plastic sleeve (Brodart). 231 pp. Irving Kirsch, an American psychology professor, describes how therapists can help their clients break the cycle caused by dysfunctional, self-confirming beliefs. From a thorough review of relevant research, he demonstrates that response expectancy - often dismissed as a "non-specific" factor - can be identified as one of the causes of phobic, depressive, and other psychological disorders, as well as an essential ingredient of effective therapy,.
