Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
"The strengths of this text are that it is easy to read and understand, and very direct and clear about how the worker is to proceed. As a blueprint for working with people in crisis, it is quite good."
"I think this book is unique in its approach on how-to techniques for crisis intervention. The other books that I am familiar with provide detail information on theory and very little on how-to techniques."

CONFUSING INFORMATION,
By
This review is from: Elements of Crisis Intervention: Crises and How to Respond to Them (Paperback)
I ordered this book for a class thinking it was the latest edition because it was described on Amazon as having 128 pages, and the older editions had only 110 pages. As it turns out, the 2nd edition IS the latest, but it only has 110 pages. This has caused me great confusion and anxiety as I need the latest edition for a college course. So,
believing I was shipped the wrong item, I immediately returned it only to find that the 110 page edition IS the latest, and it will be superceded in February 2010 with the 3rd edition which will have 128 pages. I hope that Amazon corrects this issue.
