This delightfully concise book offers a highly readable and scholarly overview of the history, theory, cultural adaptations, and standard procedures for all eight phases of the EMDR approach to psychotherapyRussell and Shapiro touch on controversies involving skeptics, the overly zealous, and proprietary professional associations with careful discussions of what the research illuminates and still needs to examine, along with practical suggestions for the future. -- Andrew M.
