...Al Ellis at his best -- engaged in lively dialogue about life and how best to approach it... Wonderful! -- Michael J. Mahoney, Author of Human Change Processes ...Ellis is right in the room with you... ready to help... use his wisdom in everything you do. -- William Glasser, M.D., Author of Warning, Psychiatry Can Be Hazardous to Your Mental Health I consider this as one of Ellis' better books because it covers REBT and its many uses. -- Raymond Corsini, Ph.D., Author of Methods of Group Psychotherapy and Handbook of Innovative Therapies I very much enjoyed this remarkable book and plan to use it with clients, students and others... a winner. -- Cyril M.
