Description

This is Volume XVIII of nineteen in the Abnormal and Clinical Psychology Series. Originally published in 1957 this study offers the history of the theory and practice of psychotherapy. Since psychotherapy is a technique and not a science, the author has aimed at tracing the development of the technical differences between the schools, and deals only with such theoretical disagreements as seemed to be connected with these technical differences.

Description

Including volumes originally published between 1910 and 1957, this set clearly shows the evolution of approaches to and definitions of conditions such as nervous anxiety, neuroses, hysteria, delinquency, insanity and mental illness.
