This new volume in the Key Figures in Counselling and Psychotherapy series explores the life and work of Joseph Wolpe, an integral figure in the foundation of behavior therapy. This volume traces Wolpe′s influence on the behavioral school and discusses the ongoing theoretical and practical contributions to the field. Author Roger Poppen, who witnessed some of Wolpe′s influence firsthand as a doctoral student, assesses the criticism that Wolpe′s work has attracted from both outside and within the behavior therapy profession and provides an evaluation of whether, and to what extent, they are justified. Providing a broad overview of Joseph Wolpe′s life and his place both in psychotherapy in general and behavior therapy in particular, this clear and eminently readable book will be invaluable to practitioners, trainers, and students in counseling, psychotherapy, clinical psychology, and social work.
