New, updated resource for practicing therapists from the father of rational therapy. Modern cognitive-behavioral therapy has its roots in the rational approach created by Ellis in the 1950s. Now known as Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), Ellis's systematic integrative approach has grown into a powerful mainstream psychotherapy. Hundreds of thousands of patients have benefited from the interventions of therapists using REBT.

Albert Ellis, founder of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, describes how REBT can help clients to significantly improve in a short period of time (10 to 20 sessions) and effect a profound philosophical-emotional-behavioral change more often than can be achieved with other popular forms of therapy.

Co-authored by Albert Ellis - a founder of modern psychology who has originated his own personality theory. All theories are critically evaluated against current research, making them meaningful to aspiring clinicians.
