Essential handbook of social anxiety for clinicians by Joav Merrick (Israel)  5 Stars
August 21, 2005
Social anxiety is triggered by the prospect or reality of certain kinds of social situations, as opposed to anxiety associated with for example insects, heights, enclosed spaces, blood or death. Social situations can be meeting new people, going on a date, public speaking or answering the telephone.
The essential handbook of social anxiety is a condensed version of the "International handbook of social anxiety" published by Wiley in 2001 with 13 up-dated chapters by professionals and researchers working in the field of psychology and psychiatry from Canada, United States, Australia and the United Kingdom.
The first section on origins and development of anxiety has five chapters, while the second section on clinical perspectives and interventions has eight chapters.
An essential book for professionals working with anxiety due to the well-written, researched and scholarly chapters with many relevant references and a useful index.
Professor Joav Merrick, MD
