Loved this book, an outstanding presentation of the evidence-based techniques and interventions utilized in Humanistic psychotherapies presented in a thorough, insightful, and authoritative fashion. Worth twice the price!!

The book description given here for this book is totally wrong. It's of some other book, not this one.

Its set up, clear, easy to follow, with valuable references, written from research point of view, most helpful for students and researchers
