"Few truly great books on psychotherapy have been published, and this is one of them. "When Panic Attacks" tells you how to deal with all kinds of anxiety and with most other emotional problems. It is clearly and charmingly written."
--Albert Ellis, Ph.D, founder of the Albert Ellis Institute and bestselling author of "A Guide to Rational Living"
"Another masterpiece from the author who helped millions help themselves with "Feeling Good: The New Mood Therapy," Dr. Burns's elegant writing style, compassion, and humor translate powerful psychotherapy methods into accessible, practical, and helpful tools for the vast number of individuals who struggle with anxiety."
--Henny Westra, Ph.D., associate professor and director of the York University Anxiety Research Clinic

Synopsis

Great stuff
This is another fantastic book from Dr Burns. This book is really great for suffers of all anxiety disorders, as it concentrates specifically on the spectrum of anxiety disorders, rather than depression which is covered in detail in his previous book, 'The feeling good handbook'.

If you follow the steps in this book, it will be hard not to get better - you really need to make the commitment to doing the exercises, which can be hard without the support of a therapist. But if you are this book will change your life.

Whats also great is that Dr Burns backs up his statements with proper scientifc facts and research. He puts the focus on getting better directly in the responsibility of the patient - theres no parent blaming, victim mentality here - just the opportunity to make real changes for the better. He makes it clear theres no magic wand or pill to recovery - but if you work at it you can recover and lead a fullfilling life.
