Crisis Assessment, Intervention, and Prevention, 2/e PDF

This was a great book. It covers in detail what a counselor needs to know about crisis intervention and prevention.

By Wanda J. Johnson

Kindle Version

The content of the book is extremely helpful. It's concise, well organized, well written, and full of all the right information needed for my introduction to crisis intervention now and saving it as a great reference book for later.

Having said that, I wish I had ordered the physical book. The Kindle version is buggy. It crashes frequently and has to be reopened from the very beginning of the text. This makes flipping through the text and looking for information on the fly very difficult and frustrating.

I'm running Kindle for Desktop in Windows 7 on an Intel i3 laptop. I've never had this problem before now. Additionally, for some odd reason Kindle for Desktop is the only place I can open the text. Not on my phone, not on the web, and not on my older Kindle keyboard. It's odd and not an issue the authors should have to fix.
