SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Determining the amenability of personality disorders to psychotherapy -- a patient's capacity to benefit from verbal approaches to treatment -- is important in helping clinicians determine the treatability of cases. The author shares the factors he has observed over long years of practice that can help practitioners evaluate patients, stressing the amenability of the various disorders to amelioration. By focusing on which patients are likely to respond well to therapeutic intervention and which will prove most resistive, his book is designed to help therapists determine with what kinds of patients they will most likely succeed and with which ones failure is almost a certainty.
