ISBN: 184590088X ISBN-13: 9781845900885 Publisher: Crown House Publishing OUR PRICE: $23.75 Product Type: Paperback - Other Formats Published: August 2008 Annotation: In "Their Finest Hour," more than two dozen of the field's best and brightest therapists, on the cutting edge of their profession, discuss their most professionally rewarding cases and share what they learned from them. These outstanding therapists talk about what defines achievement in their field, describe how their therapy really works, and speak frankly about how their seminal cases shaped their ideas. Each interview was recorded and then transcribed and written into narrative prose, and includes recreated dialogue that was based on the original case notes and recordings. Naturally, the identifying features of the clients were disguised. There have been some excellent books in the past about the most interesting and seminal cases of psychotherapy, but never have the greatest successes of the most accomplished theoreticians been assembled in one volume, and told in their own words. |
