    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    This fourth edition of Introduction to Psychotherapy builds on the success of the previous three editions and remains an essential purchase for trainee psychotherapists, psychiatrists and other professionals. It has been revised and extended to capture some of the current themes, controversies and issues relevant to psychotherapy as it is practised today.


    Bateman has added new chapters on attachment theory and personality disorder and has developed further the research sections on selection and outcome. His new chapter on further therapies covers a variety of therapeutic movements and establishes links between these and classical psychoanalytical therapies.


    Introduction to Psychotherapy is a classic text that has been successfully updated to provide a relevant and essential introduction for anyone interested in psychotherapy.



    "This new edition of a classic text in the area will be welcomed by students and practitioners seeking a clear and well-balanced introduction to psychotherapy, rooted in clinical work and a wide and deep understanding of psychodynamic principles." - Stephen Frosh, Department of Psychosocial Studies, Birkbeck College, UK



    "This book has now become a classic text and a ‘must read’ for trainee psychiatrists and other mental health practitioners wishing to gain a broad understanding of psychotherapy principles. The new edition has updated the text in keeping with new developments in this exciting field. It comes highly recommended." - Mark Evans, Gaskell House Psychotherapy Centre, Manchester, UK
