In the ground-breaking and highly controversial book, Against Therapy, Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson launches a searing attack on the very foundations of modern psychotherapy, examining figures from Freud and Jung to Fritz Perls and Carl Rogers. With passion and clarity, Masson addresses the profession's core weaknesses. He contends that because therapy fundamentally aims to change people according to the therapist's own notions and prejudices, the entire psychological process is necessarily corrupt and potentially harmful. Featuring a foreword by the eminent British psychologist Dorothy Rowe, this cogent and convincing book presents a case with shattering implications for both practitioners and clients. Against Therapy challenges readers to reconsider the nature and ethics of the therapeutic relationship.
