Greenberg Washington, DC: American Psychological Association. 2015. 212 pp, ISBN 978-1-4338-1801- 1. $69.95 http://dx.doi.org/10.1037/a0038612 Premature Termination in Psychotherapy: Strategies for Engaging Clients and Improving Outcomes is one of the very best examples of the new generation of psychotherapy development. Based on rigorous research findings and a deep look into the preexisting literature, this book presents practical guidelines to understand premature termination and provides evidence-based strategies for how to engage patients in treatment. It will especially be a highlight for practitioners who are interested in a broad insight of the overall empirical literature. For graduate students in clinical and counseling psychology, this book might be an excellent prototype for how to bring rigorous quantitative research and convenient practice examples together.
