Críticas
"Beckham and Leber have again assembled a masterful review of current findings in depression. This superb volume provides in-depth coverage of a wide range of theoretically and clinically essential material, with contributions from an impressive list of leading experts in the field. It is a truly valuable resource for practice, training, and research in the area of depression." --M. Tracie Shea, Ph.D. "The second edition of the Handbook of Depression represents a current view of our knowledge base in depression, providing excellent discussions of key conceptual and methodological issues in depression. The editors have provided an eminently readable handbook which provides the reader with a broad, comprehensive, set of chapters providing perspectives on the diagnosis of depression, a review of biological processes, as well as both psychological and pharmacologic therapies in depression. Sections on specific populations who suffer from mood disorders are also included. Finally, the writing is clear and provides an excellent forum for the authors, all of whom are experts in their own specific areas. This handbook will be used by students, practitioners, and all mental health professionals in their daily work, and is especially recommended to all students." --David J. Kupfer, M.D. (Guilford author) ..".both the editors and the authors appear to have made extraordinary efforts to weave research and clinical implications into plain language descriptions of theory...The centerpiece of the handbook is the section on psychological treatments, which includes discussions of five separate models of therapy that are used to treat depression and chapters on integrating different therapies and combining psychological and pharmacological treatments..." --Valerie E. Whiffen in Contemporary Psychology FEEDBACK FROM INSTRUCTOR SURVEY: ..".a useful text and very appropriate for the graduate level student in psychology." "[The] Level and tone of the book are perfect. My students are MA and PhD students in psychology." ..".touches on most areas necessary for my students to be familiar with." ..".the scope is excellent." "Excellent as a text, and...as a professional reference book." "The authors have accomplished what they set out to do.... It will be of value to psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and students in each of these fields... Two useful appendixes provide information about instruments to measure depression on adults and children... This is a valuable reference which belongs in every health sciences library in its new edition. The chapters are well-written and authoritative." -- Doody's Journal "Beckham and Leber's handbook is a comprehensive review of research and theory on depression: 21 chapters, two appendixes, 22- page index. The most relevant part of the book would be the chapter on depression in later life by Futterman, Thompson, Gallagher-Thompson and Ferris. The appendix also gives information on how to acquire scales. Unfortunately, there is an excessive commitment to providing comprehensive coverage of what research has been done, and that leads to content overlaps and more discussion of the MMPI depression scale than the GDS." -- Clinical Gerontologist "The authors have accomplished what they set out to do....
