This volume belongs on the shelves of all professionals who study or treat depression. At the very least, a reading of it will challenge any complacency about the surety of any narrow, sectarian approach to depression....the clinician or researcher will revise his or her hypotheses and will reach a deeper and more complete understanding of the problems under study. As a whole, the book is the first step toward the creation of a developmentally oriented, personality-based, integrative model of depression.
—PsycCRITIQUES
Depression is a serious problem for sufferers and their families and poses many challenges for clinicians to whom they turn for help. The contributors...experts in their fields, have done an excellent job of overviewing what we know, identifying the gaps in our knowledge, and expressing the urgency with which these gaps need to be filled. This is a first-rate volume, integrating experimental, cognitive, psychodynamic, personality, developmental andneurobiological approaches. It promises to become a landmark in the field.

...a milestone in theory, treatment and research on depression....The chapters offer an excellent overview of the state of the art...the editors, in their epilogue, build bridges among...different research traditions and therapeutic orientations, offering a unique and innovative integration. [It} will be indispensable for theoreticians and investigators as well as clinicians....
—Marianne Leuzinger-Bohleber
Professor and Director, Sigmund-Freud Institute, Frankfurt
...A breath of fresh air...addresses many of the central issues today in the understanding and treatment of depression...and does so in a way that is theoretically rich, clinically rich, and empirically sound. What is perhaps most important...is that [the book] situates depression in the context of personality--an oldidea whose time has finally come. Yet it has done so in a way that is truly integrative and nonsectarian, cutting across the traditional lines of cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and biological approaches, without lapsing into juxtaposition or a complacent 'let's all get along'... well worth reading and pondering, for anyone interested in the nature and treatment of depression.
