Industry Reviews

capture the breadth and depth of behavior analysis, from the history and philosophy of the field to cutting-edge research on staff training, function-based procedures for treating problem behaviors, and advances in tele-health. Of particular value are chapters on the treatment of drug addiction, pediatric feeding disorders, and behavioral gerontology. The contributors are a virtual who's who in the field who bring the reader up to date on every important topic; their voices come through clearly in each chapter. This comprehensive handbook is an ideal text for a graduate course in ABA and an invaluable reference for practitioners and students."
