Praise for the Clinician’s Guide to Evidence-Based Practice Series
‚A major stumbling block to the adoption of evidence-based practice in the real world of clinical practice has been the absence of clinician-friendly guides suitable for learning specific empirically supported treatments. Such guides need to be understandable, free of technical research jargon, infused with clinical expertise, and rich with real-life examples. Rubin and Springer have hit a home run with the Clinician’s Guide to Evidence-Based Practice Series, which has all of these characteristics and more.‘
–Edward J. Mullen, Willma and Albert Musher Chair Professor, Columbia University

This thorough, yet practical, reference draws on a roster of experts and researchers in the field who have assembled state-of-the-art knowledge into this well-rounded guide.
