From Aaron T. Beck and colleagues, this is the definitive work\non the cognitive model of schizophrenia and its treatment. The\nvolume integrates cognitive-behavioral and biological knowledge\ninto a state-of-the-science conceptual framework. It\ncomprehensively examines the origins, development, and maintenance\nof key symptom areas: delusions, hallucinations, negative symptoms,\nand formal thought disorder. Treatment chapters then offer concrete\nguidance for addressing each type of symptom, complete with case\nexamples and session outlines. Anyone who treats or studies serious\nmental illness will find a new level of understanding and the\nlatest theoretically and empirically grounded clinical\ntechniques.
