5.0 out of 5 stars Good workbook for clients, May 1, 2003

Wong Chi Kin (Hong Kong, nil China) - See all my reviews
I've bought this book in a conference in Scotland and found this book very worth, particularly for our clients. This book is aimed to be written for the public with high school education. It really serves as its purpose as it can bring the reader about basic CBT skills in depression in plain, clear and easily understood format.
