The second edition of Beyond Diagnosis is a fully updated and expanded examination of Vic Meyer's pioneering case formulation approach and its application to cognitive behavioral therapy. Featuring a foreword by Ira Turkat, the book discusses the benefits of this seminal approach to CBT and shows how dynamic, individualized assessment of complex individual problems can be more effective than standard diagnostic classification. In addition to theoretical chapters, the book also presents advanced case studies with detailed analysis from experts in the field. It is tailored for student use in training courses but will also be of interest to clinical and health psychologists, psychiatrists, psychiatric nurses, social workers and other mental health practitioners. Comprehensive and coherent, Beyond Diagnosis returns case formulation to the focus that Meyer intended and demonstrates its continuing relevance in clinical practice today.
