Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: W. T. SINGLETON THE CONCEPT This is the fourth in a series of books devoted to the study of real skills. A skilled person is one who achieves his objectives effectively, that is by an optimal expenditure of effort, attention and other resources working within his native capacities of strength, vision, intelligence, sensitivity and so forth. It is difficult if not impossible to measure in a quantitative sense. There is, however, no question about its presence or absence. The differences between a highly skilled performer and a mediocre one are so readily manifest that there is no ambiguity. The student of skill is a person interested in what these differences are and how they originate. The importance and the difficulty of skill study is that the concept is a univ~rsal one for human activity. The movement of one limb can be skilled or unskilled within the context of a task, so also can the way a leader addresses a large meeting of his followers. For these and other equally disparate activities there are certain descriptive terms which always seem to be applicable: continuity, sequencing, timing, together with a subtle combination of sensi tivity, adaptability and imperturbability. What happens at any instant is set precisely with the flow from what has already happened to what is going to happen. The order of events has a determinate logic which may not be obvious to the observer except with the benefit of hindsight.

"This short book should be carefully read and its message thoroughly internalized by every professional who is involved in any way in either deciding about therapy for a child, vending or providing therapy for children, evaluating therapy for children, and imposing therapy on children." --Issues in Child Abuse Accusations "Overall, the book is an excellent orientation to the question of the effectiveness of psychological interventions for children and provides a good set of directions for future research. Although most of the material is available elsewhere in the form of individual articles, this highly accessible comparison and synthesis of outcomes is worthwhile reading for practicing clinicians and researchers alike. . . . The book would be a very suitable introduction to questions concerning the efficacy of therapy for children and adolescents. It should be essential reading for clinicians in training who plan to work with children, and is a useful integration of the research literature for researchers and practitioners as well." --Contemporary Psychology
