"The strengths of this text are that it is easy to read and understand, and very direct and clear about how the worker is to proceed. As a blueprint for working with people in crisis, it is quite good."
"I think this book is unique in its approach on how-to techniques for crisis intervention. The other books that I am familiar with provide detail information on theory and very little on how-to techniques."
