When one adds these difficult patient problems to the therapist's quandary about how expressive or supportive to be, therapists are indeed often confronted with a challenging therapeutic task.The book begins with a review of the clinical and research literature pertaining to the treatment of borderline patients.

Therefore, the reader is provided with increased insight into what is most effective with what kind of patient at a given point in the therapy process. …
