The Viewpoints curriculum and the teacher's guide are excellent and practical resources for teaching social problem solving. The student workbook uses language that should be easily understood by adolescents. It contains clear definitions of concepts, provides engaging examples, and allows the students to work on various interpersonal problems --Denis G. Sukhodolsky, Journal of Cognitive Psychotherapy

The compact, straightforward, and rather scientific style of the authors' writing fits the program's design and supports its positive messages of self-responsibility. . . It is respectful and direct, yet does not come across as heavy handed or moralizing --Alison H. Johnson, Social Work with Groups

"This program could be incorporated into any special or general education curriculum. In addition, it would be an excellent focus for a special counseling group." --Intervention in School and Clinic
