\'… recognising the growth of knowledge and importance of the topics covered, I have certainly come down strongly in favour of this book, and it easily passes the test in being an important addition to the literature.\' Primary Care & Community Psychiatry

\'This extensively updated second edition is very welcome and I know it was eagerly awaited by CBT practitioners. I really do like the balance of theory, evidence for theory and practice, practice tips and worked examples showing how to apply the treatment in real life. … I highly recommend this book, to any student, be they new to the field or experienced practitioners of child and adolescent mental health who want a grasp of contemporary CBT in CAMHS. It is a worthy successor to the first edition and should become a core text in most clinic libraries.\' Psychological Medicine
