From the Back Cover
Comprehensive Clinical Psychology first published in 1998 as a complete collection of information pertaining to the rapidly growing field of clinical psychology. For the last 20 years it has been a hugely popular resource for psychology trainees, clinicians, and researchers. This fully revised 2nd edition will again bring together all this information into one accessible resource ―with the intent of making this information contemporary and representative of the current state-of-the-science. As before it will cover everything from the foundational history of the field to professional and training issues, clinical research considerations and methods, assessment and treatment for clinical conditions experienced across the lifespan, clinical considerations for diverse populations, as well emerging trends and future directions in clinical psychology. In addition, recent years have seen considerable growth and development in the field, and a revision of this classic reference work is extremely timely. The new edition will therefore build on the previous edition by focusing on key areas such as: the emergence of new professional and training issues; new research and statistical approaches to clinical psychology; changes to the manner in which various mental health conditions are conceptualized; advances in knowledge related to various conditions and how they are assessed and treated; and important advances in cross-cultural and other diversity considerations. The result will be the ideal one-stop, comprehensive resource in clinical psychology, thoroughly modernized to include all recent advances in the field, and a perfect reference tool for the modern reader.

His research and clinical interests are in assessment and basic mechanisms of fear, the anxiety and related disorders, and chronic pain, and the association of these with each other, maladaptive coping, and disability. His pioneering work on fear and avoidance in chronic pain and his shared vulnerability model of co-occurring PTSD and chronic pain have led to significant advances in understanding and treating these prevalent, disabling, and costly conditions. His empirical work on PTSD and other anxiety-related conditions has also influenced changes in the most recent edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.
