Terruwe's work on energy and frustration neuroses in the mid-1950's. He further developed and promoted this work throughout the rest of his psychiatric career.

Baars and Terruwe coauthored Healing the Unaffirmed. His autobiography, Doctor of the Heart, details much of his experience in Buchenwald.Drs. Baars and Terruwe coauthored Healing the Unaffirmed.
