Publisher's Synopsis
Exploring the state of anxiety in relation to both mental and physical health, this study emphasizes cognitive-behavioural theories, assessment and intervention. It reviews the various forms in which anxiety presents itself to the clinician. Some forms are traditionally regarded as anxiety disorders (social anxiety, panic, agoraphobia, generalized anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorders), while others are specific contexts in which anxiety can lead to psychological difficulties (psychosexual functioning).
