Anxiety and Its Disorders, Second Edition: The Nature and Treatment of Anxiety and Panic

Rating:
Summary: The Most Comprehensive Book on Anxiety
Review: In this 2nd edition to his classic work, David Barlow walks the reader through the various anxiety disorders. From assessment to intervention this book is complete in every way for each anxiety disorder. Also included are theoretical models that explain the function of anxiety, as well as the relation of thoughts, behaviors, emotions, and physiology. This is a book that is firmly grounded on strong and replicated empirical findings. It is detailed yet readable, and thorough yet well-organized. It is a must-read for students, researchers, and clinicians wishing to better understand the phenomenon of anxiety. It is quite likely the most comprehensive book on anxiety currently available within the field of psychology. If you read only one book on anxiety this year, make it Barlow's.
