Mindfulness and Acceptance: Expanding the Cognitive-Behavioral Tradition 
asked by kmf on November 19, 2006 2:45 PM
This volume examines a number of increasingly popular therapies that have emerged over the last decade and that share an emphasis on such nontraditional themes as mindfulness, acceptance, values, spirituality, being in relationship, focusing on the present moment, and emotional deepening. Leading scientist-practitioners provide detailed descriptions of their respective approaches, discussing theoretical and empirical bases as well as clinical methods and goals. Promising applications are presented for treating a variety of challenging clinical issues and problems, including depression, anxiety, couple conflict, PTSD, eating disorders, and substance abuse. Illuminated are the ways in which indirect and experiential change strategies are being integrated with established cognitive and behavioral techniques--and what this means for the future of psychotherapy research and practice.

This is not a book, nor is it an outline of a book; it does not have notes or highlights, nothing. It is a simple word list by chapter of the text, a sort of glossary. Basically it is useless.
