5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best books on psychotherapy available, December 20, 2000
This review is from: Self-Esteem: Paradoxes and Innovations in Clinical Theory and Practice (Paperback)
Richard Bednar and Scott Peterson created a readable book with therapeutic illustrations that see beyond the content-laden focus of general psychotherapy and get to the nitty-gritty reality of process and image-management. Bednar and Peterson are intellectually gifted and adept at theoeritcal analysis. Their focus is on the manner in which people manage their image of self through avoidance and demonstrate the fundamentally flawed nature of this attitude toward life. Through case illustrations, they effectively demonstrate a positive manner of dealing with such problems through process-oriented therapy. Their therapy promotes autonomy and is agentic in nature: a definite plus for those clinical psychologists who focus not on education but on facilitation. This book is a definite "must have."
