This guide to the South Dakota region that houses the world’s richest fossil beds does “an excellent job of presenting the current state of knowledge” (Choice). The forbidding Big Badlands in Western South Dakota contain the richest fossil beds in the world. Even today these rocks continue to yield new specimens brought to light by snowmelt and rain washing away soft rock deposited on a floodplain long ago. The quality and quantity of the fossils are superb: most of the species to be found there are known from hundreds of specimens. The fossils in the White River Group (and similar deposits in the American west) preserve the entire late Eocene through the middle Oligocene, roughly 35-30 million years ago and more than thirty million years after non-avian dinosaurs became extinct. The fossils provide a detailed record of a period of abrupt global cooling and what happened to creatures who lived through it. This book is a comprehensive reference to the sediments and fossils of the Big Badlands, and also touches on National Park Service management policies that help protect such significant fossils. Includes photos and illustrations “A worthy successor to the work of O’Harra.” —Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology

'Simmons and Griffiths provide a well thought-out introduction to the subject area of standard CBT. This text should be on the shelves of trainee cognitive behavioural psychotherapists for a considerable time to come' - Dr Alec Grant, University of Brighton This practical guide to cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) will interest a wide range of professionals and trainees across health and social care. Focusing on case formulation, the authors show how to build a 'picture' of each individual client, using their case history to inform interventions. The book covers the fundamentals of practicing CBT such as: - the CBT model and how to explain it to clients - CBT assessment and formulation - cognitive and behavioural interventions Packed full of practical features like exercises, case dialogue and therapy materials, the book also covers a range of extra topics including: - assessing referrals for suitability - working with motivational issues - getting the most out of supervision. - managing therapeutic endings. Given the abundance of CBT texts available and the host of theoretical and conflicting positions that have arisen, it can be difficult for trainees to get to grips with the practical skills necessary to carry out CBT effectively. The book addresses this by equipping the CBT therapist with the essential nuts and bolts to practice CBT with confidence. Dr Jane Simmons and Dr Rachel Griffiths are practising NHS Adult Mental Health Clinical Psychologists.
