Editorial Reviews

This is a very basic resource book on selecting and obtaining mental health care, aimed at providing a broad scope of options for the layperson. Consequently, it tends to cover topics in a relatively superficial and somewhat misleading way. For example, the authors seem to encourage the prospective client to be an assertive consumer by clarifying a potential provider's academic background and theoretical orientation. The authors thereby minimize the reality of the initial human encounter between the typically eclectic provider and the confused, anxious help-seeker. Because much of the book's content is readily available in other sources, including popular magazines, it is not an essential purchase for libraries.-- Paul Hymowitz, New York Medical Coll., New York
