Yes, Tore,
It is wildly different from the previous book. It is much better-
both in its conceptual clarity (for instance, this book is much
clearer on the role of radical behavioral philosophy in their
thinking and on how they understand radical behaviorism a bit
ideocyncratically, if I may say so - Also the syncronicities with
other third wave behavior therapies are quite explicit and so are
the points that set FAP apart). The major improvement, is that case
conceptualisation and treatment strategies as well as their
implications for supervision etc. are explained in a cristal clear
language, much better accessible for the non-initiated. If buying
the new book is too big an investment, you might sell the old one
first?
