Anxiety and Its Disorders

Author(s): Barlow DH

Abstract

In this 2nd edition, D. H. Barlow builds on the conceptual framework presented in the original volume, updating his theoretical approach and incorporating new empirical findings from a range of disciplines. Barlow identifies the core features of anxiety and describes the fundamental sense of fundamental sense of unpredictability and uncontrollability at its heart. The text integrates insights from emotion theory, recent advances in cognitive science and neuroscience, and findings from developmental psychology and learning. A new chapter explores the nature and process of anxious apprehension, and substantially revised and restructured chapters address the distinctiveness of anxiety and panic, their origins, links to related emotional disorders, and the latest developments in classification. The book then outlines what is currently known about the presentation, etiology, assessment, and treatment of each of the specific disorders. This edition will serve as an authoritative text in advanced undergraduate and graduate-level courses. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
