The purpose of this compendium (The Wiley Handbook of Anxiety Disorders, Paul Emmelkamp, Thomas Ehring) is to give clinicians a comprehensive overview of anxiety disorders. It comes in two volumes: the first draws broadly on theory and research, the second addresses treatment specific to each condition (excerpted and translated from here). The book’s content is thorough and detailed, an impressively comprehensive achievement. Readers can use it as a map to seek out remedies for themselves, or simply read it at leisure to broaden their knowledge. (Download).
