Review of: Personal Therapy for Schizophrenia and Related Disorders: A Guide to Individualized Treatment

Reviews the book, Personal Therapy for Schizophrenia and Related Disorders: A Guide to Individualized Treatment by G. E. Hogarty (see record 2002-18241-000). Psychotherapy for schizophrenia has had its ups and downs, and is definitely on the up side with the development in Europe of cognitive behavior therapy for symptoms of schizophrenia. Added to this we now have Personal Therapy (PT), a therapy that is cognitive and behavioral and more. The book is intended to be a treatment manual for the clinician to use in carrying out PT. It can certainly be used for this purpose and for the careful reader it is probably adequate. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
