Books Reconsidered

  • The Theory and Practice of Group Psychotherapy:

  • Irvin D. Yalom, E. C. Crouch
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    02 January 2018, pp. 304-306

  • This book first appeared in 1970 and has gone into two further editions, one in 1975 and this one in 1985. Yalom is also the author of Existential Psychotherapy (1980), In-patient Group Psychotherapy (1983), the co-author with Lieberman of Encounter Groups: First Facts (1973) and with Elkin of Every Day Gets a Little Closer: A Twice-Told Therapy (1974) (which recounts the course of therapy from the patient's and the therapist's viewpoint). The present book is the central work of the set and seems to me the most substantial. It is also one of the most readable of his works because of its straightforward style and the liberal use of clinical examples.

Reading About…

  • Psychoanalysis

  • David Taylor
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    02 January 2018, pp. 940-943

  • The reading I suggest first is concerned with the Oedipus complex, a major explanatory theory of psychoanalysis based upon a set of observations and crucial to the understanding of the personality and its relationships. It refers to an organised configuration of loving and hostile feelings which the child experiences towards its parents. It is the desire for the total possession of mother and the death of father as a rival, but is also love of the father and rivalry with the mother. Siblings, babies and genital and pre-genital versions of sexual intercourse and masturbation enter into it as well. My brief description draws upon the discussion in Laplanche & Pontalis' (1973) invaluable dictionary of psychoanalytic terms and concepts.
