A key theme of this book is that we urgently need a therapeutic ethos in order to bring both educational and therapeutic sensibilities to bear on the issue of children''s wellbeing, if truly effective and appropriate policy responses to the current malaise are to be fashioned. Not least, we must pay particular attention to childhood experience, showing that scientific and technical developments are always secondary to the resources of the human soul, if we are to minimize the extent to which today''s children will need therapy as adults. This will entail moving beyond narrowly mechanistic definitions of, and ways of thinking about, "well-being" and the psychological therapies. This book offers pointers to the kinds of arguments that can inform what is rapidly becoming a central concern of politicians and policy-makers.

In, Against and Beyond Therapy
Critical Essays Towards a Post-professional Era

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
In, "Against and Beyond Therapy" challenges the foundations of many of therapy's most take-for-granted and self-serving assumptions. Yet despite its title, it is very far from being yet another anti-therapy book. Rather, the book's central aim is to retrieve what is best in therapy work from what Richard House sees as the pernicious and ultimately deadening forces of institutional professionalisation; credentialism and careerism; 'audit-culture' obsessions with 'evidence-based practice'; and the 'apolitical' psychopathologising of clients - concerns well captured by the term 'the ideology of modernity'. In, "Against and Beyond Therapy" assembles some 15 years of updated critical writings within the broad therapy field, with incisively provocative commentaries on the professionalisation process, the client voice, therapeutic education and training, and research. For practitioners who are highly sceptical about the beneficence of the state regulation of the psychological therapies, this book promises to be a rallying-point for the development of a 'post-professional' therapy culture.It will be indispensable reading for critical psychologists, and for therapists of all persuasions and modalities who value critical thinking and challenge, and who welcome the opportunity to step outside of therapy's conventional, taken-for-granted 'regimes of truth'.
Implausible Professions
Arguments for Pluralism and Autonomy in Psychotherapy and Counselling

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
The first edition of Implausible Professions, published in 1997, foretold many of the core issues around therapy 'professionalisation' that have come to dominate the field in recent years as the shadow of possible state regulation has loomed ever larger over the psy landscape. In the current highly charged context, this new edition could not be better timed. The many and diverse chapters, written by a mix of well-known names and new arrivals, are as fresh and relevant today as they were in the 1990s. The back cover of the first edition described how the contributors to Implausible Professions 'throw into question many of the most taken-for-granted assumptions on which the professionalisationA" and commodification of psychotherapy and counselling are based. The essays display the creative pluralism and passionate vitality which typify the best aspects of therapeutic work.' This edition contains a completely new editorial Introduction and Conclusion, updating the story to 2011.For those engaging with the politics of professionalisation for the first time, or wanting to refresh themselves about the reasons why counselling and psychotherapy are in principle 'implausible professions', this text is even more indispensable than it was in 1997.
Reluctant Adult - Revisited
An Exploration of Choice
AvJill Hall,Richard House
Häftad, Engelska, 2025
240 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
This new edition of a prescient masterpiece was very ahead of its time when first published over 30 years ago, and is even more urgently relevant today, exploring how to get beyond the wheel of victimhood to claim our full adulthood in freedom.Why is it that a sense of freedom and well-being is not a more natural human state? Perhaps we are still hampered by an outdated ‘Newtonian Psychology’ which underpins the belief that something or somebody caused us to be the way we are. Once trapped in an endless chain of blaming, woundedness and guilt, victimhood prevails and adulthood then eludes us.Along with our species’ physical maturity, there must surely be vital aspects of the human psyche which most of us have not, as yet, brought into play. In relinquishing our present framework of thought, and opening to a more extended experience of self, spirit and ego could then be reconciled, with freedom and responsibility becoming an achievable reality. Yet letting go is precisely what we fear most. This book is an exploration of why this should be so – and an invitation to embrace our full adulthood.“It is a real thrill to find the spiritual aspect of holism expressed with such vision and authority” Sir George Trevelyan
Humanising Science and Medicine
Critical Paradigmatic Conversations
AvRichard House
Häftad, Engelska, 2025

Skickas
Twelve in-depth interviews with philosophers, psychologists, medical doctors and independent researchers interrogate the phenomenon of science per se, and modern medical bioscience in particular – including why today’s medical science is fundamentally flawed from multiple viewpoints. Taken together, these deep conversations examine what’s wrong with modern science, and how it urgently needs to change. Interviewees include Professors Barrie Condon, Brian Martin and David Morris, Drs Katherine Buchanan, Martin Cohen, Thomas Hardtmuth and Ian James Kidd, and psychologists Dr Bruce Scott and Sami Timimi.Humanising Science and Medicine is essential reading for all open-minded scientists and medical practitioners – and for all people concerned about the directions modern science and medicine are taking. How can we create a genuinely humanistic system for supporting human health that is grounded in true, uncaptured science, bringing a holistic perspective to well-being in our narrowly technocratic times? Read this book to find out.
