J L Moreno by A Paul Hare
J. L. Moreno, the founder of sociodrama and sociometry, is best known for the impact he had on group psychotherapy, out of which he created psychodrama. This is now one of the most important and popular of the 'creative' therapies, and is widely practised throughout the world. The concept of 'role' was central to Moreno's theory and throughout his life he played many himself. A. Paul Hare and June Rabson Hare describe a man who was, among other things, a psychiatrist, dramatist, theologian, inventor and educator, and who made significant contributions in all of these areas in addition to his major influence on social science and group psychotherapy. Just as Moreno's life covered a wide range of activities, his theoretical and practical contributions to therapy cover an equally broad spectrum. This book draws together and clarifies the most important of the concepts and applications of Moreno's work, presenting and successfully rebutting the criticism some of his theories have attracted. Providing a fascinating and accessible introduction to the life and work of J. L. Moreno, as well as to the principles and practice of psychodrama, this book will be essential reading for counsellors, psychotherapists and all those interested in drama therapy and psychodrama.| SKU | Unavailable |
