Three worlds of therapy

About this book

A clear, vividly descriptive introduction to psychotherapy as practised by Freud, Jung and Rogers. Each of the three forms of therapy is presented in a three-chapter section: the first describes in non-technical language that theory's view of the patient; the second describes the general course of the therapy; and the third takes the patient, Mary, through that therapy until she is "cured". The phenomenological method of describing in concrete detail what happens during therapy, the engrossing drama of Mary's unfolding case, and the author's easy narrative style all create a highly realistic scene for the reader and help him to grasp and appreciate each therapy's effectiveness and instrinsic limitations.
