"This book is an important contribution to the treatment of people with a high risk for developing psychosis. The authors succeeded in integrating recent research findings on cognitive biases and the psychology of salience into a cognitive behavioural therapy framework. The authors are excellent researchers and therapists and this effective therapy is described stepwise, making this handbook transparent and easy to read." - Aaron T.

This encompasses: - Psycho-education about prepsychotic symptoms - A review of literature about psychological processes that are known to play a role in the development of psychosis - A comprehensive manual - illustrated by numerous clinical vignettes - that can be used to treat help-seeking subjects with an increased risk of developing psychosis. - Links to online resources to be used in the therapy, exercises, psycho-education - A description of the multicentre randomized clinical trial investigating this new psychotherapy. The vast collective experience and expertise of the authors of this handbook results in an invaluable text for clinicians working in mental health care, as well as students, lectures and researchers who have an interest in the prevention of schizophrenia and other severe mental illness"--
