A significant contribution to the field of integration in
psychotherapy
Maria Gilbert (CHECK)
This is a book to be read and re-read as part of the journey of
discovery that we are all engaged in as practitioners and as human
beings
Helen Cowie, from the foreword
Psychotherapy is an area that has seen huge growth in prominence
and practice. The range of theoretical schools that have emerged
means that practitioners are striving to amalgamate and synthesize
new approaches and theories.
"New Approaches to Integration in" "Psychotherapy" provides a
snapshot of the latest theoretical and clinical developments in the
field of integration. Eleanor O'Leary and Mike Murphy bring
together contributors from a range of theoretical backgrounds, who
reflect on their experiences with integration, critique existing
research and provide a thorough overview of the historical
development of psychotherapy itself. The book is divided into three
sections, covering the following subjects in depth:
- Frameworks and Theoretical Integrations
- Professional and Clinical Integrations and Special
Populations
- Issues for Professional Consideration
This book will be welcomed by anyone interested in investigating
integrative approaches to psychotherapy. In particular, it will
have direct relevance to academics involved in training and
research on psychotherapy, psychotherapists, counselors and
clinical psychologists.
Focusing on a decade in Irish history which has been largely
overlooked, Youth and Popular Culture in 1950s Ireland provides the
most complete account of the 1950s in Ireland, through the eyes of
the young people who contributed, slowly but steadily, to the
social and cultural transformation of Irish society. Eleanor
O'Leary presents a picture of a generation with an international
outlook, who played basketball, read comic books and romance
magazines, listened to rock'n'roll music and skiffle, made their
own clothes to mimic international styles and even danced in the
street when the major stars and bands of the day rocked into town.
She argues that this engagement with imported popular culture was a
contributing factor to emigration and the growing dissatisfaction
with standards of living and conservative social structures in
Ireland. As well as outlining teenagers' resistance to outmoded
forms of employment and unfair work practices, she maps their
vulnerability as a group who existed in a limbo between childhood
and adulthood. Issues of unemployment, emigration and education are
examined alongside popular entertainments and social spaces in
order to provide a full account of growing up in the decade which
preceded the social upheaval of the 1960s. Examining the 1950s
through the unique prism of youth culture and reconnecting the
decade to the process of social and cultural transition in the
second half of the 20th century, this book is a valuable
contribution to the literature on 20th-century Irish history.
