"In questo libro, il lettore, neofita o già competente in materia, viene guidato nello sviluppo e nell'applicazione dei principi della terapia cognitivo-comportamentale attraverso le fasi di strutturazione della terapia stessa: accoglienza del paziente, formulazione del caso, pianificazione del trattamento e strutturazione delle sedute successive. Il volume illustra come riconoscere i punti decisionali quando insorgono nella seduta, come valutare le strategie più utili e opportune rispetto allo specifico paziente, come modificare le strategie adottate o individuarne di nuove a seconda delle necessità emerse dalla concettualizzazione cognitiva del caso e, infine, come valutare il grado di successo della strategia rivisitata. Al fine di rendere il manuale più fruibile e comprensibile, gli autori ricorrono a estrapolati di colloqui clinici così da illustrare le dinamiche caratteristiche della terapia e, nel contempo, evidenziare possibili difficoltà nella progressione del trattamento, ponendo particolare attenzione al superamento delle difficoltà che possono presentarsi nella pratica clinica e alla prevenzione di eventuali ricadute. Tali caratteristiche rendono il volume un indispensabile ausilio clinico per l'acquisizione di nozioni e competenze fondamentali per la corretta progettazione e svolgimento dell'intervento terapeutico a beneficio d paziente."

"Essential General Surgical Operations" has been specifically produced to meet the needs of the basic surgical trainee who is looking for a concise operative text. Adapted from the best-selling parent title, "General Surgical Operations, Essential General Surgical Operations" includes a straightforward description of all common major operations, together with a brief account of the less common procedures encountered during the early stages of surgical training. The highly-praised features of "General Surgical Operations" have been retained, including the clear, direct writing and illustrative style, and boxes which emphasise and give advice on how to recognise, avoid and correct difficulties. However, the text has been rewritten where necessary to ensure that the needs of the basic trainee are clearly met, and substantially streamlined so that the key operations are covered in the exact level of detail required.
