This new edition of Thought and Feelings has been revised so thoroughly it is essentially a new book, with fourteen new chapters. The most important addition is an integrated treatment plan for twelve major mood-based problems - worry, panic, perfectionism, obsessions, phobia, depression, low self-esteem, shame and guilt, anger, avoidance, bad habits and procrastination. An excellent guide for both the general reader and the therapist, this is a genuine book of self-help, and a valuable resource of effective cognitive-behavioural therapies.

Both authors are PhDs in Psychology. Practically every advice written in this book is backed up by some empiracal evidence or study. The book covers all aspects of communication such as listening, body language, and influencing others using operant conditioning. One should note that this book focuses improving relationships through better communication. Hence, this book is not suitable for situations where antagonistic and competitive communication styles are warranted. For example, I thought the chapter on negotiation was poor due to the fact that the book promotes a "nice guy who will listen" approach to negotiation. Such approach to negotiation with no competitive strategic objective will spell disaster against a well seasoned negotiation sharks in a professional environment. Overall, the book offers solid scientifically based advice on personal communication. Just don't rely too much on it in a setting where competition, not cooperation, can be the norm.
