Learning And Behavior Therapy discusses the future of behavior therapy and its roots in learning theory and research. In its beginning, behavior therapy applied what was then current learning theory and research to clinical problems.

Dr. O'Donohue, along with his contributors, has developed a comprehensive volume which examines how behavior therapists can benefit from utilizing current learning results as applied to clinical problems.
