This casebook for performance psychology, presented by the American Psychological Association, is intended for practitioners who work with athletes, performing artists, business leaders and others who work in high- risk environments. Editor Hays, an independent practitioner in Toronto, has collected stories from colleagues on how to develop mental attributes for peak performance, address performance challenges and deal with consequences such as eating disorders, isolation and burnout. A section is also devoted to the consultant and the system, and how practitioners can help patients with family systems, team leadership and hierarchical public safety organizations.
