"[Provides] an excellent and thoughtfully constructed model."
—John Edward Ruark (PsycCRITIQUES, February 2008) "Theodore Millon
and his colleague Seth Grossman have been key players in the
assessment and treatment of personality disorders for decades. They
accurately describe the current state of affairs in psychotherapy
practice, in which therapists trained in and committed to a single
approach, tend to observe patients through only one lens and to
adopt a one-size-fits-all strategy for treatment. This volume
definitely made me look forward to its promised successors."
