Recenzii
“This volume might be best used as an addition to an advanced psychopathology for graduate students and psychiatry residents. … the authors include an appendix with suggested teaching objectives and exercises. It will also be of use and of interest to practitioners and researchers. There is much of intellectual and clinical value in this volume. Wasserman and Wasserman do us a great service in challenging the status quo and in developing a true neuropsychological model of psychopathology and its treatment.” (Jerry Gold, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 62 (7), February, 2017)

Textul de pe ultima copertă
This brief, accessible treatise harnesses the neurophysiological processes of learning to create an innovative and powerful approach to therapy. It sets out a non-pathologizing alternative not only to the current medicalized conception of diagnosis and treatment but also to the labeling of relatively normal reactions to stressors and upsets as illnesses. Rooted in the neurobiology of human learning, the book’s approach to treatment, Neuro-Cognitive Learning Therapy, characterizes maladaptive behavior patterns as learned responses to upsetting conditions—processes which can be unlearned. In addition, the coverage includes a clinical teaching guide for bringing NCLT theory and methods into the training curriculum.
