The busy clinician will appreciate the clarity with which material is concisely presented. The examples of cases offer support to the therapist who wants to move from theory to practice. In a time of decreasing sessions allowed for mental healthcare, this book is very valuable for ensuring that the most will be made of the sessions the client has with the therapist. [Five Stars]\u003c\/p\u003e * Doody's Health Science Book Review Journal *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eI strongly recommend this book. It will be both interesting and useful for experienced therapists, and especially so for trainees and students. Already, I have used it in psychotherapy supervision with a resident who stated voluntarily that it was 'very helpful.' In particular, she considered that the selection of the psychotherapeutic approach on the basis of the patient's location on the psychopathology health-sickness continuum and also the explication of the therapists' approaches, ranging from the brief supportive to the expressive, provided a logical formula for trainees. Also, this book can serve as a valuable review as well as a guide for experienced therapists.\u003c\/p\u003e \t\t\t\t\t\u003cp\u003eThe Winstons' emphasis on the importance of the various common brief psychotherapies along with their acknowledgement of the often needed use of combined brief psychotherapy and pharmacology is refreshing. Obviously, I am enthusiastic about the 'Handbook of Short-Term Psychotherapy.' The only problem is that it has not 'been around' for years.\u003c\/p\u003e -- John J.
