What Works for Whom?, First Edition by Peter Fonagy

This volume synthesizes information on the efficacy of the major models of psychotherapy for commonly encountered mental health problems. Maintaining a balance between empirical coniderations and the role of clinical judgement, the authors examine how research evidence can be used to improve the structure and planning of services to specific patient groups. The book is enhanced by a comprehensive disorder-by-disorder approach and careful attention to the methodological strengths and limitations of available research. The text should be of use to practitioners, students and researchers of clinical and counselling psychology, psychiatry and social work, as well as health care administrators and planners.

Given that 'what works for whom' is the perennial question asked by psychotherapy trainees, this superb book should be required reading in any psychotherapy course or seminarRoth and Fonagy underscore not only the importance of understanding the answer to this question, but also the importance of asking the question in the first place. - Wendy K. Silverman, Florida International University
