Reviews

"Knaus has given us an extensive new edition of his highly successful "The Cognitive Behavioral Workbook for Anxiety." From direct observation, we know that the completion of this project has been a labor of love. Knaus has a strong scientist-clinician's grasp of the topics he covers in this revised edition, and it shows! Throughout the book, he shares his clinical insights and thorough understanding of the anxiety research. This book effectively summarizes many approaches to coping with anxiety and offers help to those who needlessly suffer its effects. It is a goldmine of proven ways and innovative methods to cope with the many faces of anxiety. The self-helper who chooses to reduce or end needless anxieties and fears, regardless of the form that they take, will find an organized approach for developing the skills needed to manage anxiety or make it go away."--Leon Pomeroy, PhD, author of "The New Science of Axiological Psychology" and Wendy Pomeroy, MD, US Department of Justice, retired
