Product Description:
From the files of Michael Yapko, Albert Ellis, Stephen Lankton, Susan Johnson, Pat Love, Michael Mahoney, Laura Brown, Bradford Keeney, Peggy Papp, Frank Pittman, Terrence Real, Scott Miller, Arnold Lazarus, William Glasser, and others, this volume contains the wisdom of some of the most adept therapists in the field. Against the backdrop of what they consider their most rewarding cases, members of the forum talk about what has defined their outstanding contributions, how their therapy really works, and the seminal cases that have gone into shaping their ideas.
Editors Kottler and Carlson have gathered a robust group of creative professionals to shed light on what to some may seem mysterious. In doing this, they have put together a useful, engaging and inspiring resource.

Rating: - A top pick for community library psychology and biography collections
There are those patients who make everything their psychiatrist went through worthwhile; "Their Finest Hour: Master Therapists Share Their Greater Success Stories" is a compilation of these shining cases. Filled with prose based on notes from success stories of patient recovery and breakthroughs, "Their Finest Hour" is an optimistic and refreshing view of the mental health profession in general. A top pick for community library psychology and biography collections.
Rating: - Makes for some fine reading hours
Interesting therapeutic stories presented in the same tradition, and by the same authors, as The Mummy at the Dining Room Table. Again, and perhaps unbeknownst to the individual therapists, the theory and technique do not even begin to compete with the healing relationship between therapist and client which is the true source of these "finest" outcomes.
