3.0 out of 5 stars Hard going
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 September 2020

This is a 400 Page thesis. I chose this as it’s by Dr Hayes the originator of ACT. I have only read 100 pages (of part 1) but it’s been a hard slog & all about how they got to creating ACT & how the fusion of Dr Hayes personal experiences with anxiety & his research brought movement in from CBT. I tried skipping to part 2 but found too many terms from part 1 I wasn’t familiar with. I’m hoping parts 2&3 will be more helpful when I finally get there & that I’ll regret my 3star rating.....
There is also a minor air of “but of course, behavioural/ humanistic psychologists knew this & no one else did” which just grates slightly.

Currently part 1 is a great book for a psychology student but not for a depressed mother.... if you are the latter, I’d say opt for a lighter introduction/ handbook for ACT!

3.0 out of 5 stars act
Reviewed in Italy on 7 December 2021

Prima parte del libro valida,con suggerimenti molto preziosi.nella seconda parte delle applicazioni pratiche della act tende ad essere un po troppo involuto poco chiaro insomma....Svaluta eccessivamente la cbt da cui partono le teorie di Hayes,anche per la mindfulness ha parole non chiare,questa disciplina in particolare ha superato il vaglio del tempo ed è quindi validissima.Tuttavia mi sento di consigliare il testo,per le teorie innovative che contiene.
