Main description:

Wedding and Corsini's popular casebook, "Case Studies in Psychotherapy, International Edition", provides classic and contemporary cases that vividly bring concepts to life for your students. All cases are selected on the basis of intrinsic interest, clarity of presentation, and the extent to which each case demonstrates the basic techniques and methods of the theory being studied. Compelling new cases have been added that illustrate Existential Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, and Therapy in a Multicultural context, while retaining the classic case studies by some of the world's most important psychotherapists, including Albert Ellis, Aaron Beck, and Peggy Papp.
