Praise: "Case formulation represents one of the most essential aspects of effective therapeutic intervention. All good clinical work entails problem solving, and Arthur Nezu, Christine Maguth Nezu, and Elizabeth Lombardo have provided us with an approach to case formulation that is based on the available theory and research in problem solving. This comprehensive volume is an invaluable resource for the practicing clinician." -- Marvin R.
