Description
Dealing with anxiety in relation to both mental and physical health, this book goes beyond the anxiety disorders which frequently form the focus of research and writing in clinical texts. It explores anxiety as a factor influencing psychosexual dysfunctions, physical symptom presentation, the onset and course of disease and the process of post-operative recovery. The author has provided a consistent framework to the book in order to facilitate accessibility of information. Each chapter is thus organized to reflect theory, assessment and therapy outcome.

Description
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).
