"…easy to understand and very informative... quickly provides the readers with the tools necessary to begin taking control of their panic, then moves into providing the readers with a basic understanding of why they experience panic attacks. Once the readers examine this material, they then move into a step-by-step approach to overcoming their panic attacks. I recommend this highly for the clinician who works with clients who have panic disorder or, of course, for the client themselves."
— North American Association of Masters in Psychology

"When I read through the book I was most impressed... So, I decided to give it the acid test. I loaned it to... a man who suffers from a classic case of panic disorder. He came in the following week absolutely raving about how wonderful your book was, how helpful it was, and how it was by far and away the best book he has ever read on the subject...

"This is a well thought-out, well presented book which should be of enormous help, especially to those who do not live in areas where effective treatment is easily obtainable. It covers all of the areas of rehabilitation from panic and does it well, incorporating the techniques presently considered to be the most effective treatment available." — Cyma

"The minute I finished reading (Master Your Panic and Take Back Your Life), I wanted to hop right on a plane and fly out to meet with Dr. Beckfield in person.

"An excellent guide for those suffering from anxiety disorders. Very clear descriptions of sound treatments... an excellent discussion of the 'roots of panic.'
