Freud's converts - Clifford, Vicki (Karnac, 2008)
Includes bibliographical references (p. 200-212) and index
This work explores the relationship which psychotherapy has with religion. Sigmund Freud and Carl Rogers, both founders of psychotherapies, left a legacy which is not that of scientists whom they claimed they were. They each had a problematic relationship with religion, and this has a lasting effect on the work and attitudes of their respective followers.--[back cover]
