Full disclosure: I did not read every page of this book， but did read most of it。 I found it helpful as a Christian pursuing a mental health profession to see how various approaches align with a Christian worldview。 Tan’s explanations of secular psychology were easy to read and understand for any student。

This book felt less thorough than Corey's work on theories though its conciseness was appreciated。 Tan's thoughts on how each theory interacted with Christianity was interesting though perhaps because of my seminary background most of it seemed fairly intuitive。 This book felt less thorough than Corey's work on theories though its conciseness was appreciated。 Tan's thoughts on how each theory interacted with Christianity was interesting though perhaps because of my seminary background most of it seemed fairly intuitive。 。。。more
