Divided into three parts, the book opens with the background to the clinical trial including the rationale for the early intervention strategy, assessment strategies to identify \"at risk\" groups, and a review of prevention strategies. In Part II the focus is on the application of cognitive therapy for this group. Part III examines strategies for change, as well as specific issues including social isolation and relapse prevention. \u003cp\u003eList of Figures and Appendices vii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbout the Authors ix\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eForeword by Max Birchwood xi\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction xiii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements xvii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I: Background 1\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 The Importance of Early Recognition 3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 How to Identify At-Risk Groups 9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 Which Prevention Strategy to Adopt 23\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart II: Cognitive Therapy for Prevention of Psychosis 27\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Why Cognitive Therapy? 29\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 Engagement 37\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Theory, Assessment and Formulation 45\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart III: Change Strategies 55\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 Normalisation 57\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 Generating and Evaluating Alternative Explanations 65\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 Safety Behaviours 75\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10 Metacognitive Beliefs 87\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e11 ‘I Am Different’ and Other Core Beliefs 93\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e12 Social Isolation 101\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e13 Relapse Prevention 111\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e14 Conclusions 117\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendices 121\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences 135\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex 143 \u003c\/p\u003e  “…an easy to read guide…” (\u003ci\u003eBehavioural \u0026amp; Cognitive Psychology\u003c\/i\u003e, Vol. 33 2005)  \u003cp\u003e\"...well researched, well written and easily understood...of interest to all who work with high-risk adolescents and young adults...\" (\u003ci\u003eIntl Jnl of Clinical Practice\u003c\/i\u003e, June 2004)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"...extremely interesting and highly readable...\" (\u003ci\u003eMental Health Today\u003c\/i\u003e, September 2004)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"Strong stuff...[the authors] offer some well-researched loyalty truths\" (\u003ci\u003eDaily Telegraph\u003c\/i\u003e, 22nd November 2005)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"...an excellent introduction...illuminating but concise...\" (\u003ci\u003eBACP\u003c\/i\u003e, December 2005)\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cb\u003ePaul French\u003c\/b\u003e is co-ordinator of a specialist clinical team based at Bolton, Salford \u0026amp; Trafford Mental Health Trust offering cognitive interventions for people who are considered at high risk of developing psychosis.

French and Morrison, major investigators in the landmark study demonstrating that schizophrenia can be prevented, provide specific details about the adaptation of standard cognitive therapy to the treatment of individuals at high risk of developing this disorder. In a clear readable style, they guide the reader through the identification of high-risk individuals, crucial cognitive behavioral strategies and, above all, relapse prevention.
