“Overall my impression of this book is that it is a very useful resource to add to my clinician’s catalogue of materials to use when treating patients with BDD.” (British Association for Behavioural & Cognitive Psychotherapies, 1 October 2012)
"Few clinicians in the world are as experienced as Drs Veale and Neziroglu in the effective treatment of body dysmorphic disorder (BDD). Their comprehensive book transcends the typical treatment manual. It provides an impressively science-driven understanding of BDD, as well as a richly detailed protocol for practitioners. The wisdom and guidance in this book can significantly aid in alleviating the personal suffering that BDD brings."—Thomas F. Cash, Professor Emeritus of Psychology, Old Dominion University, USA, and author of The Body Image Workbook, Second Edition (2008)
