Overall, I believe this is the best introduction to evidence-based treatment for panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, and depression available. The treatments are presented in a clear and straightforward manner. The use of video to demonstrate the actual application of the major therapeutic strategies will lead to enhanced learning compared to written materials alone. I highly recommend this to anyone wanting to teach themselves to use these treatments, as well as teachers, professors, or lecturers looking for training materials for students and beginning therapists in this area.
