Review
"The text is outstanding in the sequencing of material. It lays a wonderful foundation for understanding crisis, the importance of understanding cultural diversity, and the topics are relevant and current."
"I think Kanels textbook is the most suitable material for an undergraduate crisis intervention course that I have found. The books depth and scope make it appropriate for training of paraprofessionals outside of the college setting as well."
"The ABC model of crisis interventions provides a useful guideline for teaching about crisis intervention and specific steps to implement for students. My students found it helpful and felt they would use it professionally."
