Synopsis This is an impressively thick (400+ pages) workbook that is most thorough in its approach to handling the sensations of panic, phobia, and anxiety. One of the exercises involves keeping a panic attack record for a two-week period, and another how to connect bodily symptoms with catastrophic thoughts. Exercise and relaxation are key, as are recognizing triggers. Key factors to Edmund J. Bourne's approach include: imagery desensitization, real life desensitization, and imagining a specific situation that causes fear and examining the worst possible outcomes. Through workbook exercises one can begin to plan confrontational experiences in advance, bring along a friend, and slowly let go of the need for control. This is a great book to keep around the house and thumb through, full of tests and charts and ways to measure progress. This is part of an invaluable series of anxiety-related books from the author, which includes BEYOND ANXIETY AND PHOBIA and COPING WITH ANXIETY.
