Louis Cozolino, PhD, is a professor of psychology at Pepperdine University and maintains a clinical and consulting practice in Los Angeles, California.
"If Kandel brought the viewpoint of a Nobel Prize neuroscientist,
Cozolino delivers the informed perspective and integrative thinking
of a master clinician in this updated edition….This beautifully
written book is indispensable for anyone involved in the fields of
mental health or public policy."
*Psychiatric Times*
"In his revised edition, Cozolino artfully traverses the gap
between clinical practice and the emerging literature in
neuroscience. By cleverly juxtaposing clinical examples with brain
research, he demystifies psychiatric disorders and places them
within an easy-to-understand neuroscience framework. Readers will
come away knowing just how and why psychotherapeutic processes have
a positive impact on the nervous system."
*Stephen W. Porges, PhD, Director, Brain-Body Center, Department of
Psychiatry, University of Illinois at Chicago*
"A master clinician, outstanding teacher, and avid interpreter of a
burgeoning literature, Dr. Cozolino is a welcome guide to this
fascinating intersection of talk therapy, developmental psychology,
anatomy, and neuroplasticity. In a reprise of his outstanding first
edition, Dr. Cozolino brings readers up to date with this essential
revision. Ten years of updates and a great deal of polishing will
more than reward the returning reader or curious newcomer."
*John D. Wynn, MD, Medical Director, Division of PsychoOncology,
Swedish Cancer Institute, and Clinical Professor of Psychiatry and
Behavioral Sciences, University of Washington School of
Medicine*
"Cozolino is a brilliant writer and wonderful story
teller….Regardless of the level of neuroscience a psychotherapist
wishes to add to their expertise I cannot recommend this book
highly enough. The book also will be a valuable addition to the
bookshelves of neuroscientists themselves, clinicians, policy
makers and especially public mental health workers."
*Metapsychology Online Reviews*
"[E]xcellent….Psychotherapists and physicians alike could benefit
from absorbing the challenges posed by the author, particularly his
wish to see the psychotherapy of the future integrated with
neurology."
*Dr. Bryan Knight - Hypnosis Depot*
