The original edition was the first book to provide a comprehensive overview of the ways in which animals can assist therapists with treatment

revisions of continuing chapters as the research in this field has grown. New coverage includes: Animals as social supports, Use of AAT
with Special Needs students, the role of animals in the family- insights for clinicians, and measuring the animal-person bond.
