First published in 1989, he deals with issues of fundamental importance to the future of a psychology guided by genuine enquiry and concern rather than mere professional self-interest. Crossing and re-crossing boundaries between psychology, psychotherapy and philosophy, and between science' and art', he demonstrates the linkages between the personal and the impersonal, subject and object, inside and outside, with a daring not previously risked by anyone working in the area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDr Mair stresses the importance of a poetic approach in psychology and psychotherapy, and the need to explore and understand the nature of psychology through an imaginative freedom of language. He emphasizes that a poetic awareness and attentiveness is fundamental to any pursuit of understanding of ourselves or others.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a very personal book, concerned with \u003ci\u003epersonal knowledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements Introduction \u003cb\u003ePart One: A Poetics in Practice\u003c\/b\u003e 1 Caring to know 2 Pretending to care 3 Some personal impressions of psychotherapy 4 Psychology in an intermediary mode 5 A use of imagery in psychotherapy 6 Towards a poetics of experience 7 Preaching what we practise \u003cb\u003ePart Two: A Personal Story \u003c\/b\u003e Between thee and me\u003cb\u003e Part Three: A Discipline of Discourse\u003c\/b\u003e 8 Hints of a conversational psychology 9 The passion of knowing 10 Speaking from within a world References Index\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51767527276887,"sku":"9780415859523","price":35.14,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780415859523.jpg?v=1758713634","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/between-psychology-and-psychotherapy-psychology-revivals-9780415859523","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
