Clinical Psychology: Revisiting the Classic Studies traces 14 ground-breaking studies by researchers such as Leo Kanner, David T. Lykken and Aaron T. Beck to re-examine and reflect on their findings and engage in a lively discussion of the subsequent work that they have inspired. Revisiting the Classic Studies is a series of texts that introduces readers to the studies in psychology that changed the way we think about core topics in the discipline today. It provokes students to ask more interesting and challenging questions about the field by encouraging a deeper level of engagement, both with the details of the studies themselves and with the nature of their contribution. Written by researchers at the cutting edge of these developments, the chapters in each text provide details of the original works, as well as their theoretical and empirical impact.

It is only by understanding the past that we can truly appreciate the progress that has been made and how new ways of thinking then, and now, have to occur for progress in clinical psychology to continue. This book provides an excellent account of key studies that changed our understanding of mental health and clinical psychology. It is an easy book to dip into and I thoroughly enjoyed reading about each ground-breaking study and learning how much influence and impact each one has had on current knowledge. If you want an insight into research and theories that have shaped contemporary clinical psychology then this is the book to read.
