Review
“This book is one of the very few that brings together the insights of postmodern theory, psychotherapy, and Judaism. It belongs in all graduate religious studies and Jewish studies libraries.”–Religious Studies Review
Product Description
Dia-Logo Therapy is a study of psychotherapy as a dual or dia-logic discourse between the two rational-cognitive and mystic-schizophrenic worlds. A comprehensive theory of psychotherapy must encompass treatment possibilities for rational and irrational behavior manifestations as they are apprehended in their specific cultural context. The Jewish PaRDeS system is a pluralistic reading method for balancing between the rational-cognitive and the irrational-mystic. Incorporated are ideas from theories of literary criticism, deconstruction, and reception. This book is appropriate for clinical psychologists, Judaica scholars, humanistic psychologists, and philosophers interested in mysticism and phenomenology.
