Excellent source of research tools

This book is not only valuable for clinical practice. It is also of substantial utility in conducting research. Both undergraduate and graduate students find the measures invaluable when conducting course related research. Faculty also find them highly useful.

Very. very good book. Would be a great one if....

This book is an amazing resource in to not only getting an idea of where clients may be in regards to symptoms but also, it offers an immense amount of ideas for treatment plans and goals. One problem is the authors do not go into detail about subscales on several tools that have them. Its still a great buy and i reccomend it to any MSW .
