I would highly recommend this as a key text for clinical psychology trainees and postgraduates working or researching in medical settings across the lifespan, both as a general orientation tool and a resource to refer to with reference to specific presenting issues.Fleur-Michelle Coiffait, Doctoral student, University of Edinburgh, UK&quote;The tone of this volume is well pitched; it is written in clear English yet without being over-simplified. New vocabulary is collated into key terms boxes for easy reference at the end of the chapter a useful device for the new student. Also proffered at chapter end are For Discussion boxes, encouraging the reader to critically assess and compare the contents of the chapter, along with useful suggestions for further reading.
