"The first edition of Clinical Psychology: A Modern Health Profession by Wolfgang Linden and Paul L. Hewitt was my first choice as a textbook. This second edition is now my first choice. Linden and Hewitt have used their extensive clinical knowledge to write a contemporary classic that describes how the vast psychological knowledge drawn from theory and research can inform and be integrated into evidence-based clinical practices from assessment to intervention. This is a dynamic and engaging book that will resonate with students, clinical trainers, and practicing psychologists." - Don Saklofske, University of Western Ontario, Canada

With sensitivity to both foundational principles as well as contemporary forces shaping the field, this new edition clearly outlines the essential role of clinical psychology in modern healthcare. It represents an invaluable resource to any clinical prep or field orientation course." – William S. Chase, Keystone College, USA
