Family Desk Reference to Psychology

An astonishing amount of sound advice on a multitude of topics can be found in this book, which runs to over 500 pages with over 100 headings or sub-headings. It is as much a guide to life as psychology, with sections on communication, solving personal problems (including issues around raising children), then more standard fare on depression, anger, guilt, self-esteem, addiction and insomnia. Most people will use it as the title suggests - as a reference book when they want advice or information on a particular situation. The book has been very well received by major mental health organisations in the US.
