Overview
Worry and Its Psychological Disorders by Graham C. L. Davey and Adrian Wells, editors, first published in 2006, is included for an edited scholarly survey of theory, assessment, and treatment. The page distinguishes the book's own claims from independent research used to evaluate those claims. Its assigned proposition is scholarly models and evidence.
Author
Graham C. L. Davey and Adrian Wells, editors is represented through the title's bibliographic record and documented publication trail. Authorship order, editorship, and coauthorship remain explicit. Credentials or life details are not inferred from retailer copy.
Historical Background
The publication year matters. The book could draw only on evidence available by 2006; later meta-analyses are evaluation sources, not material silently attributed to the original edition. Its genre also matters: a clinician manual, workbook, edited volume, or popular synthesis makes different promises.
Key Ideas
The book's central contribution is an edited scholarly survey of theory, assessment, and treatment. For this authority build, the test is whether its concepts help distinguish productive reflection from repetition that no longer changes evidence or action. Jon tries not to think about a health concern and checks his body every few minutes to see whether the thought has gone. The Worry and Its Psychological Disorders example shows how monitoring for mental silence can keep both the thought and bodily cue salient. The example is used to examine the book, not to advertise it.
Edited chapters may disagree. Exercises are reported as the author's procedures unless a trial or systematic review independently tests them. Readability, sales, or memorable metaphors are not efficacy evidence.
Important Passages
Passages are paraphrased unless the exact edition and page have been inspected. Any direct wording requires edition, page or chapter, and surrounding context. This prevents later internet summaries from being presented as the author's sentence. For Worry and Its Psychological Disorders, the limiting condition is edited chapters may disagree, and the assigned evidence is listed in this page's source record.
Influence
Worry and Its Psychological Disorders contributes vocabulary and procedures to discussion of worry, rumination, intrusive thoughts, mindfulness, or cognitive therapy. Influence is documented through editions, citations, teaching use, and recognizable conceptual uptake—not by assuming every recommendation works for every reader.
