CBT theoretical summary book?

Anyone have any book recs that are about the history of CBT? Kind of outlining the different schools of thought within CBT and more about theory vs. a practical guide on how to conduct CBT. I've read things like this for psychodynamic therapy, but not yet for CBT.

Yes, Leahy has a good one. Cognitive Therapy Basics and Beyond by Judith Beck is good in depth theory.

Also, Learning Cognitive-Behavior Therapy- an illustrated guide by Wright, Basco, and Thase is a good guide that comes with a DVD
