ISBN 8039-7575-9, ZEIG J & MUNION M, Sage Publications, London, 147pp, Paperback We have always endorsed the sentiments attributed to Erickson “Erickson was a firm believer in the importance of individuality, and he would not have appreciated imitation...”(pp96-7).  It is for this reason that the NCHP includes Erickson on its curriculum, but does not make Erickson the whole of its curriculum.

CARL GUSTAV JUNG
ISBN: 0-7619-6238-7, CASEMENT A, Sage Publications, London, 168pp, Paperback Jung’s work, and life, continue to fascinate students of Psychology, practising psychotherapists, and persons interested in the influence of ideas. Jung’s personal activities provoke as much controversy as do his theories, not least his alleged Nazi sympathies. The author, a former UKCP Chair, tackles her subject at the theoretical, practical and personal levels.  Professor Andrew Samuels, probably the country’s foremost Analytical Psychologist, commends the book as a likely, “...single volume of choice...”. for practitioners engaging in this topic.
