Talking Cures: A History of Western and Eastern Psychotherapies

Abstract

This work shows how underlying socio-cultural constructs support and inform the way therapy is provided across a wide variety of cultures and eras. Emphasizing the philosophical foundations of psychotherapy, the text examines how and why therapists of different persuasions operate as they do. In addition to extensive coverage of non-Western approaches to psychotherapy, the book also explores the psychotherapeutic implications of radical feminism, existentialism, and social constructionism.
