"Perhaps the most valuable aspect of the book, though, are the guidelines for collaborative care and the professional socialization provided as to how important it is for providers to establish trust and communicate well. There is a good discussion of how to set up collaborative relationships and of the kinds of information and policies that providers should share." (<i>PsycCRITIQUES</i>, Volume 56, Issue 51)
