Back to Reality: A Critique of Postmodern Theory in Psychotherapy
W W Norton & Company (1995)
Abstract
The author critiques postmodern/narrative theory, with its underlying antirealist/constructivist philosophy that the knower makes rather than discovers reality. As an alternative, she introduces readers to the integrative/eclective therapy movement and proposes "modest realism".Author's Profile
