It provides both an “inside” (within the client centered) and broader pantheoretical perspective. The authors offer a deep appreciation of the value of PR and, at the same time, also carefully delineate the limits and challenges associated with the concept. This outstanding book is a rare combination of scientific rigor and tried clinical wisdom in an accessible and engaging format\u003cem\u003ean essential item in the library of every psychologist.  \u003c\/em\u003e -- Adam O. Horvath, Ed.D Professor Emeritus Simon Fraser University, Past President of Society for Psychotherapy Research, North American Chapter\u003cbr\u003eA very important book. There never has been as thorough a treatment of positive regard as there is in this book. It gets at the research, and it does a thorough review of its history, theoretical notions, and clinical use. I recommend it for practitioners, theorists, teachers, and researchers. Finally, it is readable and interesting. Even Carl Rogers’s alter ego Mr. Rogers makes an appearance!   -- Arthur C. Bohart, PhD, Professor Emeritus, California State University, Dominguez Hills\u003cbr\u003eThe positive regard that these authors have for their readers, clients, students, and colleagues is apparent. This well-written book will help readers think about the role that a therapist's authenticity and well-being play in their work with clients. I recommend it to everyone who wants to become a better person and a better therapist.   -- Clara E.
