Synopsis

For the first time in a single volume, two British authors provided a clear description of the principles of dynamic psychotherapy and their application in the wide range of psychotherapeutic techniques available today. Originally written in 1979, this revised and expanded second edition brings An Introduction to Psychotherapy completely up-to-date. It is intended for professionals and interested lay people entering the often bewildering territory of psychotherapy, in which claims and counter-claims by those committed to a particular approach make necessary a balanced appraisal of what they have in common, as well as their distinguishing features. An Introduction to Psychotherapy has proved a welcome integrative introduction in the reading lists of many psychotherapy and counselling courses and, for professionals in wider fields who seek a balanced view of how the various forms of psychotherapy are related.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This fourth edition of Introduction to Psychotherapy builds on the success of the previous three editions and remains an essential purchase for trainee psychotherapists, psychiatrists and other professionals. It has been revised and extended to capture some of the current themes, controversies and issues relevant to psychotherapy as it is practised today.

Bateman has added new chapters on attachment theory and personality disorder and has developed further the research sections on selection and outcome. His new chapter on further therapies covers a variety of therapeutic movements and establishes links between these and classical psychoanalytical therapies.

Introduction to Psychotherapy is a classic text that has been successfully updated to provide a relevant and essential introduction for anyone interested in psychotherapy.
