Abstract
No doubt some readers will recognize the title of this work, and wonder about the date given above. I am reviewing the Bantam paperback issue of a book originally published by Norton in 1979. The book, which was considered important enough to be serialized in four periodicals, and by United Features Syndicate, and to be a Book-of-the-Month Club selection, has basically one message: patients should play an active role in their own healing.
