Description

The impetus for publication of this volume came from the Conference on Psychotherapy with Schizophrenic Patients held in the Department of Psychiatry of the Yale University School of Medicine in New Haven on December 6, 1950. The papers face realistically the difficulties in therapy, but there is nevertheless a consistent note of restrained optimism. Those who have worked in this pioneer field of psychotherapy of schizophrenia have an especial obligation upon them to write up and publish their work for others to read for purposes of study, comparison, challenge, and enlightenment. This volume of papers from the Yale-sponsored symposium serves these purposes. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2005 APA, all rights reserved).
