Beautifully written, and richly illustrated with vignettes, this book describes psychopathology in simple and accessible language. It contains helpful insights, useful resources and interesting questions. It is an indispensable survival guide for trainees and experienced therapists. I plan to recommend it to all my trainee therapists. -- Maria Luca, PhD I enjoyed reading this informative, empathic and engaging book and am certain that it will become the 'must have' introduction to this topic and also ensure that all those involved in mental health promotion and support ( at all levels) will have access to a relevant, user friendly and informative survival guide. -- Dr Tina Rae, Academic and Professional Tutor, University of East London
