About the author

Albert Ellis was an American psychologist who in 1955 developed Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT). He held M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in clinical psychology from Columbia University and American Board of Professional Psychology (ABPP). He also founded and was the President of the New York City-based Albert Ellis Institute for decades.
He is generally considered to be one of the originators of the cognitive revolutionary paradigm shift in psychotherapy and the founder of cognitive-behavioral therapies. Based on a 1982 professional survey of USA and Canadian psychologists, he was considered as the second most influential psychotherapist in history (Carl Rogers ranked first in the survey; Sigmund Freud was ranked third).

Reviews

I'm not going to rate this because of obvious reasons but I will say it's a really great introduction to REBT and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning about this form of therapy

*I skipped the chapters about REBT intensive and marathons, structured group work and the approach to sex therapy because I am currently not interested in those aspects

After reading and applying Three minute therapy by Student of Albert Ellis one star is my rating,i don't think REBT works .

[Kalem Wright · Rating 4 out of 5]

In this book, Ellis and Dryden lead readers and practitioners through the theory and application of REBT, a cognitive-behavioral strategy that emphasizes changing destructive irrational beliefs. Ellis and Dryden largely achieve their goal of promoting their intervention through its simplicity, elegance, and through practical and easily learned skills. As a book, it’s hard to call this work a success. It seems like a “frankenbook” cobbled together from past book chapters and articles that is lazy at worst and a missed opportunity to clarify and educate at best. As a result, the basic ideas are repeated almost ad nauseam. However, this is a valuable read for the first two chapters alone to learn the core concepts.

This is a second read of this book. I have (a later edition, Prometheus, 2004) of this book and read it after a friend in NYC described working with Albert Ellis. Ellis is interesting about how to look at the differences between the things we'd like to have, be, do and what we have, are, and do. He learned early about managing expectations. My friend learned how to manage difficult working relationships. Warning! There are some surprising sections of the book relating to some of Ellis's somewhat alternative passions but I decided to read the book with an open mind. What he say deserves attention.

[Elis Niyazieva · Rating 5 out of 5]

easy to read and understand, explaining the reasons of common behavioral beliefs, expectations and feelings, actions according to expectations; proving that we all have irrational emotional battles and that emotions, thoughts and actions are interconnected.
