Reviews
This clearly written, practical book on child psychotherapy provides a developmentally based guide to understanding and treating children. The author makes sense of a wide spectrum of psychopatholoy with a few simply enunciated yet complex concepts that he creatively constructs out of early self psychology theory and various sectors of classical psychoanalytic and object relations theories. While his clinical examples are meant to illustrate his theoretical views, they stand by themselves as beautiful illustrations of the work of a sensitive, flexible, and responsive clinician. -- Howard A. Bacal
This exciting work is the first volume to present a systematic understanding of self psychology theory as it relates to child psychotherapy. Dr. Miller advances new theoretical constructs as applied clinically to child psychotherapy, expanding the dialogue for both child and adult therapists. In addition, his generous clinical examples are not only compelling but provide a means of understanding a wide range of issues often encountered in our practices. -- Jacqueline J. Gotthold
Jule Miller III makes a much-needed contribution to child psychotherapy. He is uniquely qualified to achieve an integration between ego psychological and self psychological approaches. In this process he has added original conceptions to self psychological theory, to an enriched understanding of childhood play, and to fantasy life. Detailed clinical illustrations abound, richly laced with Dr. Miller's personal experience. -- Morton Shane and Estelle Shane
