Psychology in Medical Settings: Evidence-Based Assessment and
Intervention Hardbound: 450 pages
This
resource builds upon the previous
Handbook of Clinical Psychology in Medical Settings
It addresses areas of practice that are unique to various settings, such as understanding the medical culture and reimbursement issues that drive modern practice. In addition to providing a solid update of the evidence, the current book includes practical clinical advice for operationalizing and adapting the existing data to practical applications. In short, this book aims to maintain the strengths of the earlier volume and address the weaknesses of current handbooks.
