The author's principal aim is to win over the patient through the
development of the "positive" aspects of his psychopathology-a
concern the significance of which I have also discovered,
especially in schizophrenic therapy. It is in this specific sense
that Peseschkian speaks of "positive" psychotherapy. His model is a
notable synthesis of psychodynamic and behavior-therapeutic
elements, making an essential contribution to unified relationships
within psychotherapy. In this way Peseschkian is attempting not to
directly confront the patient's resistances. The consultation takes
place in a loving way through allusions to poetry, proverbs and
oriental fairy tales and myths, to which Peseschkian, as a Persian,
has direct access. His ability to offer his patient a great
treasure of handed-down wisdom knows no bounds. Anyone who has
personally experi enced the author's therapeutic enthusiasm and
optimism will understand why this method of short psychotherapeutic
procedure is highly successful in its effects. Professor Gaetano
Benedetti, M. D.
