| Abstract: | (from the cover) This . . . book will introduce you to the basic historical, philosophical, gender, and cultural assumptions of the theory and practice of psychotherapy. You will see the connections and contradictions between competing ideas and ideals that have shaped the professional identities of most contemporary psychotherapists. In 'Talking Cures," you will also find: coverage of Western and Eastern approaches to psychotherapy, including radical feminism, existentialism, and Zen; coverage of ancient and modern practices of psychotherapy, the impact of the Enlightenment on psychotherapy, the work of 18th- and 19th-century French psychiatrists, and current data from clinical psychology [and] case studies, stories, anecdotes, and personal reminiscences to bridge the gap between what is written about psychotherapy in academic psychology and what is true in real life.
