Review:

"A remarkable and unique contribution to the scientific analysis, diagnosis, and treatment of the anxiety disorders. He assesses the strengths and weaknesses of diverse approaches that range from phenomenological to biochemical and he successfully integrates the reliable findings from these sources. Far more than any other work on the topic, this one integrates the theory and rapidly growing body of basic research on emotions. This helps make the book a solid scientific treatise and a state-of-art work for understanding, treating, and preventing anxiety disorders. This volume is likely to become a landmark for clinical researchers and practitioners." --Carroll Izard, Ph.D.. University of Delaware "A highly readable volume....Provides an excellent overview of the field." "A necessary and excellent source for graduate students, researchers, and clinicians." -- Contemporary Psychology "A highly readable volume....Provides an excellent overview of the field.""A necessary and excellent source for graduate students, researchers, and clinicians." --"Contemporary Psychology"
