Praise for Critical Thinking in Clinical Practice, Third Edition "Eileen Gambrill is unparalleled in her ability to describe common flaws and biases in clinical decision making. The result in this revised edition is a steadfast call for change that also acknowledges the demands of practice. A must-read for clinicians and researchers alike." --Elizabeth K. Anthony, PhD, Assistant Professor, School of Social Work, Arizona State University "This Third Edition builds upon the impressive strengths of Gambrill's prior treatments of the topic to support the notion that critical thinking is a teachable skill and one essential for contemporary practice in the human services. This book should be the default authority on the topic of critical thinking for human service professionals and would be an excellent textbook." --Bruce A. Thyer, PhD, LCSW, Professor and former Dean, Florida State University College of Social Work "I was skeptical about how Critical Thinking in Clinical Practice could be improved, but Eileen Gambrill has succeeded! Her articulation of critical thinking skills for clinical decisions ultimately will benefit the people we serve." --Joanne Yaffe, PhD, ACSW, Associate Professor of Social Work and Adjunct Associate Professor of Psychiatry, University of Utah A balanced and illustrative guide to incorporating critical-thinking values, knowledge, and skills into clinical education and practice Now in a third edition, Critical Thinking in Clinical Practice is written for helping professionals who want to think more clearly about the decisions they make and the context in which they make them. It is a practical volume for clinicians who would like to expand their knowledge of common pitfalls and fallacies in clinical reasoning. As in earlier editions, this Third Edition draws on research related to problem solving and decision making, illustrating the relevance of research findings to everyday clinical practice and policy. Revised throughout, the new edition includes discussion of: * The influence of pharmaceutical companies on the helping professions, including disease mongering--the creation of bogus risks, problems, and needless worries * Different kinds of propaganda in the helping professions that compromise informed consent * Additional coverage of classification, pathology, reliance on authority, and hazards in data collection * The development of decision aids of value to both professionals and clients * The relative contribution of specific interventions compared to nonspecific factors to positive outcome * Factors related to decision making in multidisciplinary teams * New developments regarding intuitive and analytic reasoning * The pragmatic theory of fallacies Designed to enhance the quality of services offered to clients, Critical Thinking in Clinical Practice, Third Edition is filled with insightful examples, useful lists, websites, and guidelines, presenting an essential resource for all helping professionals and students in the helping professions.
"...she has produced an ambitious and impressively comprehensivebook that belongs in the library of every clinician and in thebackpack of every graduate student." (PsycCRITIQUES)
"The book does work best as a reference: each topic is aseparate research area in its own right" (Evidence BasedMedicine)
"Anyone seeking a succinct, well-written, easy-to-read survey offaculty reasoning and how to cure it should look no further.Gambrill's book should be the required text for any course incritical thinking for psychotherapists, a course urgently needed byevery psychiatric, clinical psychology, and social work trainingprogram in existence today." (Skeptical Inquirer)
"Clinical training programs cannot discount the importance ofcritical thinking or the knowledge and skills that it requires. Itis hard to justify the absence of a course focusing on thewide-ranging material woven together in Critical Thinking inClinical Practice. By supplying a model textbook for such a course,Gambrill has made a valuable contribution." (ContemporaryPsychology)
"[Critical Thinking in Clinical Practice] is essentialreading for all who aspire to improve the quality of clinicalpractice. In some respects, this book might be called "the thinkingsocial worker's guide to improved practice." The very questionsthat are raised by Gambrill are as important as the answers thatshe proposes." (Research in Social Work Practice)
"For the research instructor, this volume presents a potentialbridge for the gap between research and practice. It would be anideal text for a course that would focus on how critical thinkingthat employs research concepts and methods can improve clinicaldecision making. In addition, readers are provided with a varietyof approaches to monitor and improve their decision making skills."(Social Work in Health Care)"Eileen Gambrill is unparalleled in her ability to describe commonflaws and biases in clinical decision-making.
