The article reviews "Acceptance and Commitment Therapy: An Experiential Approach to Behavior Change" by Hayes, Strosahl, and Wilson. It highlights the book's clarity, philosophical significance, and unique perspective on the "Socratic Problem." The author, a professor at the University of Alcalá de Henares, presents three main themes: the problem of common sense, the problem of meaning, and the problem of consciousness. The book engages in a debate between philosophical and scientific perspectives, particularly in psychology, and explores the tension between analytic and hermeneutic traditions. The book addresses the limitations of radical behaviorism in clinical settings, emphasizing the need for philosophical foundations, especially pragmatism and contextualism. It discusses how the book integrates insights from Zen philosophy, existentialism, and Gestalt psychology. The authors argue that the book is not a recipe book but a theoretical and practical guide for psychologists. It is written in an accessible language for psychologists from various approaches, especially clinical techniques. The book is part of a series of self-help manuals published by the Center for Behavior Therapy in Valencia. It is based on a cognitive-behavioral model and is effective for small groups, with an 80% success rate. The book is designed for clients but can also be used by therapists as a guide. It includes ten chapters and appendices, covering panic and agoraphobia, its definition, functioning, origin, and physiology. The article concludes that the book is an important contribution to clinical psychology, with strong theoretical and empirical support, and demonstrates the maturity of behavior analysis in addressing ecological problems. It also highlights the importance of argumentation in philosophy and the need for scientists to avoid it as a weakness when reflecting on understanding the world and themselves.The article reviews "Acceptance and Commitment Therapy: An Experiential Approach to Behavior Change" by Hayes, Strosahl, and Wilson.
