Reviews

The breadth and scope of the book are excellent for an introductory adjustment text. Of special value is the early chapter on learning. While other texts are appropriate, few, if any, adjustment texts have a chapter on learning. This is an important addition This text addresses many of 'Life's Choices' in a way that students can relate to. The writing style is assessable but does not talk down to students. The narratives and the interviews between student and therapist are very effective.
