A propos du livre

Revue de presse

For everyone with a body, not just the professionals! Edmundson and Totton give a vivd account of an approach which is both compassionate and effective. Body psychotherapy lies at the conjuction of most of the main themes of contemporary psychotherapy: the key role of relationship in the psyche, enhanced understandings stemming from neuroscience and physiology, the need for as much non-regulated practitioner automony and freedom to dare as is consistent with responsible practice, and the realisation of how little of what we do is natural and how much irradiated by the culture in which we live. Maybe capitalism's latest crisis will force people to re-read Reich as the relevant theorist of alternative ways to organise our world. If that thought interests you, start here ... --Andrew Samuels, Professor of Analytical Psychology, University of Essex
