SALE This volume thoroughly updates Dr. Wachtel's seminal work, Psychoanalysis and Behavior Therapy, extending the clinical application of his groundbreaking integrative model. Dr. Wachtel has developed a new integrative theory, cyclical psychodynamics, that has reworked traditional psychoanalytic concepts and proved capable of addressing observations and clinical experiences on which both psychoanalytic and behavioral theories are based. Psychoanalysis, Behavior Therapy, and the Relational World carefully examines the implications of new developments in both psychoanalytic and behavioral approaches and significantly extends the cyclical psychodynamic model clinically and theoretically. This volume is the first in the APA Psychotherapy Integration Book Series. Hal Arkowitz, PhD, is the series editor. Book Review Paul Wachtel's latest book is clearly integrative and follows logically from his 1977 book Psychoanalysis and Behavior Therapy. This book has been widely cited as a classic and indeed maybe said to have begun the integration movement…In my opinion, Paul Wachtel is one of the two most powerful integrators in the broad field of psychotherapy…in terms of the ability to develop a grand theoretical sweep, Wachtel has no superiors and few equals. This book should be read by all who want to know the background of our common field. In many ways, he's the Arnold Toynbee of psychotherapy. |
