Book Synopsis Changing Expectations by : Irving Kirsch
Book excerpt: How therapists can help their clients break the cycle caused by dysfunctional, self-confirming beliefs. Through a thorough review of relevant research, the author demonstrates that response expectancy- often dismissed as a "non-specific" factor- can be identified as one of the causes of phobic, depressive, and other psychological disorders, as well as an essential ingredient of effective therapy. -- Book Jacket.
