| Summary: | "Psychotherapy Research and Behavior Change" represents a unique contribution to the field because of the authors' insightful analyses of central problems that require attention if psychotherapy theory, research, and practice are to continue to develop and prosper. The volume should appeal to all of those--scholars, professional practitioners, beginning students, and nonpsychologists--who wish to stay informed about current issues in psychotherapy. /// Two major themes are present in these lectures. The first is a recognition of major problems facing practitioners because of the diverse conceptual and methodological approaches that compose modern psychotherapeutic practice and research. /// The second major theme is an emphasis upon the human qualities of the interaction between therapist and patient.
