Beyond Technique: Psychotherapy for the 21st Century

This book should be required reading for anyone who professes to conduct psychotherapy. LeShan challenges the individual therapist to grow and transcend conventional knowledge. In that way, therapists can empathically connect with the people they hope to help. Thought provoking and full of wisdom, LeShan presents his tome with the utmost humility. A very moving book! This book is best summed up by William Osler's edict, "It is more important to know what sort of patient has the disease than what sort of disease the patient has" (p. 9).
