Adaptation and Psychotherapy: Langs and Analytical Psychology - Paperback

by John R. White (Author)

Adaption and Psychotherapy gives a concentrated but complete picture of Robert Langs's adaptive clinical theory, and also expands Langs's treatment of adaptation by examining Carl Jung's theory of adaptation. This book articulates Jung's positive and clinical understanding of adaptation in a way that allows comparison to Langs's adaptive paradigm as well as a creative synthesis of the two approaches. The result is a development of Langs's adaptive paradigm and an expansion of clinical theory and technique that is valuable for both Freudian and Jungian analysts.
