Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy: A Therapist's Guide

Superbly written.

I have been charged for Hardcover book, but the bookseller had send me a paper cover book. Its very disappointing from the bookseller side. Although, the contents written by the author is very much valueable.

This book is thin and the print is so clear. Thank you!

Very nice 👌 👍

All Albert Ellis's books have been good thus far. This is good also.

Most books comprise lots of fluff. You know...rambling on for five pages just to make a single, semi-coherent point. This book, however, is slender. No fluff. No nonsense. Just a concise and thorough exposition of everything there is to to know about REBT.

While Dr. Ellis has already published many popular books on Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), this book from "The Practical Therapist Series" is targeted to doctors qualified to practice psychotherapy, who have no time to read lengthy popular books. While the audience of this hardcover is health care professionals, I, not being a medic myself, found this work pleasant to read and easy to understand Much of the theory of REBT was derived from philosophy rather than psychology. Dr. Ellis has read many works of ancient and modern philosophers before devising this framework. REBT is cognitive, emotive, and behavioral, and is not by any means strictly "intellectual". REBT states that is not an adversity (A) that negatively affects the human but the belief (B) of the individual about this adversity, that leads to negative consequences (C). These are the simple but most important ABCs of the therapy. Not being a psychotherapy practitioner, I can recommend this book to anyone who is interested in what REBT is.
