reviews
"At last, a serious and usable reference volume on assessment for both the clinician and scientist. Antony and Barlow have made a major contribution to bridging science and practice with this handbook. In one place, the professional who needs to assess a particular type of problem can find a critique of available measures, suggestions for test selection, and a clear description of what each test provides. This outstanding volume should be on every researcher's and every clinician's bookshelf. It will be especially important for clinical psychologists to have this volume handy when they are asked to evaluate a client or develop a research program."

"A valuable contribution. This outstanding resource should be on the shelf of both graduate students and practicing clinicians. Clear and well written, the book is special in that it closely links assessment with the practicalities of developing an empirically based treatment plan. This is exactly what practitioners and managed care organizations are looking for. I thoroughly recommend it."

"An invaluable resource that meets a real need for clinicians and researchers. For clinicians, this book offers an astonishing array of empirically supported assessment strategies for virtually any disorder encountered in clinical practice, presented accessibly and in a consistently informed fashion. For clinical researchers, it provides a very broad selection of research-based assessment methods to quantify therapeutic change and reflect therapeutic outcome."
