Reviews
"My impression is that MiCBT is as much a marketing effort as a therapeutic and scientific one. If Mindfulness-Integrated CBT: Principles and Practice attracts the interest of other investigators as it deserves, it will be interesting to see how the comparative outcome data emerge and to what populations each approach will be more effective."
