| Summary |
"When the subject "The Place and Scope of Psychotherapy" was suggested to me as the topic for the 1951 Salmon Lectures, I accepted the assignment with humility. Rather than elucidate psychotherapy in all its intricate forms, it occurred to me that it would have pleased my friend and teacher, Dr. Salmon, if I reviewed from the historical and humanitarian viewpoint some of the advancements and digressions I have personally witnessed during my fifty years in psychiatry. Therefore, this volume is not a detailed or erudite account of psychotherapy, but rather a brief historical review of the psychiatric scene in the last half century. I have endeavored to bring to the forefront the fact that in the earlier years we had not delved sufficiently below the surface of the human mind. Dynamic psychiatry has taught us to understand and evaluate the unconscious. This knowledge of the hidden depths of human behavior has led us to the development of more effective psychotherapeutic treatments"--Foreword.
