'This is a comprehensive review of psychotherapy interventions for helping people with bipolar disorder. Students in clinical training are likely to find it very useful but so are licensed mental health professionals who have been practicing for years. Many different approaches are addressed here along with the research supporting their effectiveness … What is unique about this book is that all of the approaches are presented so as to invite therapists to evaluate how they might selectively combine them, as appropriate, within an integrative treatment plan. There also is a very useful section at the end that can be shared with clients, describing the different parts of an integrative approach.' D. C. Marston, Choice
