Abstract

This book primarily focuses on the status of research in light of the tradition of merging and harmonising across various schools and attempts to neutralise research in Lambert’s “Bergin & Garfield’s Handbook of Psychotherapy and Behavior Change” for almost five decades. A number of other groups of ethical scientists from around the globe also deserve gratitude in this regard.

Scientists and their teams who have dedicated their work to high-quality, true to life (contextual) psychotherapy research and fill us with the hope that the reality of life can merge with the world of academia are also worthy of praise.

Last but not least, I would also like to express my gratitude to every scientist who helps us to uncover the misuse of science through “fake science”, open our eyes to it and help us resist it.
