The present volume is meant to give an account of the psychotherapy methods evolved by Recovery, Inc., a non-profit group whose purpose is to train post-psychotic and psychoneurotic persons in the practice of psychiatric self-help ... Psychotherapy, individual or group, is invariabley based (1) on a philosophy, (2) on techniques ... In point of philosophy, [the author] cannot share the view that human conduct is the result of unconscious drives, sexual or otherwise. To his way of thinking, adult life is not driven by instincts bu guided by Will. Quite proudly, [the author] claims also to echo the voice of common experience and common sense. Whatever may be meant by drives, be they instinctual cravings ... or emotional trends, desires, wishes, yearnings and leanings, they all eventuate in impulses, acting or ready for action. To the author, it is inconceivable that adult human life can be ordered without a Will holding down impulses. What precisely is meant by the term Will is amply demonstrated in the text.-Dust jacket
