CHOICE Review

With the increasing rate of divorce, there is a need for a comprehensive, well-integrated guide for those who are involved in divorce counseling and its unique problems. Mowatt (University of Washington) contributes to the psychological and counseling literature through an eclectic approach to techniques for effective divorce counseling. The author's 25 years of experience in working with clients who are in the process of dissolving their marriages provides readers with access to the complex processes involved in divorce. Additional references provide the reader greater clarity for each topic covered. There are well-formulated discussions and excellent illustrations in finance, housing, child custody, stress factors, and postdivorce concerns. This book covers successful techniques and skills for comprehending the spectrum of issues related to divorce. It is a practical guide for the general public, mental health practitioners, and students.-G.M. Greenberg, Western Michigan University
