Review
"Throop's book is a real winner. The book cuts across clinical psychology and cultural studies. It improves greatly on some similar material and attempts to trace individualism in actual policies. Throop knows the literature and has gone about a cultural critique in a sensible way."-- William Epstein, Professor Emeritus, School of Social Work, University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Product Description
The author puts forward an argument with sound logic and evidence that is sure to spur debate. As a cultural anthropologist, as well as a social worker and family therapist, Throop enjoys a unique perspective form which to analyze psychotherapy's effects on culture and policies. This title presents a lively indictment of American culture's pervasive use of the psychotherapeutic metaphor to explain behaviours, a habit that has crossed the Atlantic in recent years, arguing that psychotherapy and excessive individualism has only ensured the continuance of social problems.
