Diabetes and Wellbeing Reviews

It is an excellent introduction for clients and health practitioners into the range of psychological interventions that are available. (Behavioural & Cognitive Psychotherapy, 1 March 2014)

This book is written to be read in its entirety and is a good addition to the current literature on the psychology of diabetes. It will support many of the web-based learning facilities that are available to patients and healthcare professionals. (Diabetes Update, 1 October 2013)
