Solomon Katherine Williams 204 Editor's Preface Volume 5 of Clinical Sociology Review continues the tradition of organizing contributions into five general areas: History of Clinical Sociology, Theories of Clinical Sociology, Practice of Clinical Sociology, Teaching of Clinical Soci- ology, and Book Reviews. As in years past, the division among these areas is somewhat arbitrary since there is overlap among the focus of the articles. Volume 5 has a higher proportion of contributions on practice, and less on teaching than in previous volumes. The reasons for this are not clear, but the distribution of articles published does reflect the distribution of articles received. The publication of Volume 5 is an appropriate time to express appreciation to both authors and reviewers. Without the insightful comments of the reviewers the quality of the Review would not be assured. These colleagues have given generously of time and effort to evaluate contributions to the Review, and to suggest to authors ways in which the articles might be modified so that they would communicate important ideas and experiences to the readers of the Review. At the same time, contributed manuscripts are the lifeblood of any journal. Authors have maintained good humor in the face of sometimes extended delays in the review process, and have responded thoughtfully to the suggestions of the reviewers. History of Clinical Sociology. In this section, Fritz introduces the work of William Foote Whyte, one of the pioneers in sociological intervention. The summary of his intervention interests is based in part on interviews with him, and in part on a review of his work. Two examples of Whyte's work are presented: his 1947 article on solving human problems in the hotel industry, and his 1981 presidential address to the American Sociological Association on using social inventions to solve human problems. An article by Elias H. Porter shows the value of Whyte's social system approach to solving human problems. Theories and Methods of Clinical Sociology. This section contains two contributions which extend our understanding of sociologically based interven- tion. First, Straus extends clinical theory, showing how differing views of how the world functions affect our understanding of the mechanisms of change. Couto points out the differences between academic and participatory research, and how the latter can play an important role in bringing about change. The Practice of Clinical Sociology. Clinical sociology is useful both in general intervention and in the

The development of two substantive systems in teacher education is discussed--the teacher system (the model of.a teacher) and the program system. Five strategies for articulating the model of a +p.acher are noted:(a) the model of the school, in which the teacher is seen in relationship to his job environment and the necessary teacher competencies are developed after the model of the school is defined;(b) the generalist model;(c) the model of a particular educational approach, in which the teacher is provided with the competencies necessary for implementing a certain instructional strategy; (d) the practitioner model; and (e) the traditional program components model, in which the usual elements of teacher education are translated into competency statements and competency programs. Since the model of the teacher provides the substance of the program, program design is completed after the model is defined.

  • The Past Lives of Betty Eisner: Examining the Spiritual Psyche Of
    THE PAST LIVES OF BETTY EISNER: EXAMINING THE SPIRITUAL PSYCHE OF EARLY PSYCHEDELIC THERAPY THROUGH THE STORY OF AN OUTSIDER, A PIONEER, AND A VILLAIN TAL DAVIDSON A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS GRADUATE PROGRAM IN PSYCHOLOGY YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO SEPTEMBER 2017 © Tal Davidson, 2017 ii Abstract In this thesis, I argue that early LSD research was imbued with a sense of mysticism that was constructed to be commensurable with concurrent scientific epistemology. I demonstrate how mysticism entered psychedelic research and therapy through the history of a pioneer LSD psychotherapist named Betty Eisner. Since the late 1940s, Eisner was a key member of a bible study group that emphasized the psychological foundation of mystical experiences. When she entered psychology in the 1950s, she imported this influence into her research and therapy. As an active member of the small international LSD research community of the ‘50s and ‘60s, she participated in ongoing discussions about the place of mysticism in LSD psychotherapy. However, following malpractice accusations in the 1970s, Eisner lost her clinical license. Using records from her license revocation hearings, I will contextualize her work within the larger psychology profession’s attitudes toward mystically inspired therapy. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract………………………………………………………………………………….ii Table of Contents……………………………………………………………………….iii Introduction………………………………………………………………………………1 Chapter

    EMBODIED WISDOM The Collected Papers of MOSHE FELDENKRAIS Foreword by David Zemach-Bersin Edited by Elizabeth Beringer "Moshe Feldenkrais was one of the twentieth century's most original thinkers. This volume presents Feldenkrais's most concise and cohesive statements on the theory behind his work .... I hope the publication of this important and long overdue book will help bring his ideas the recognition and the critical analysis they so deserve. I believe the Feldendrais Method® has the potential to help millions of people." -from the Foreword by DAVID ZEMACH-BERSIN, cofounder of the Feldenkrais Institute of New York ore than fifty years ago, Moshe Feldenkrais began developing the extraor­ M dinary movement-based learning method that bears his name. Embodied Wisdom is the first collection of Feldenkrais's articles and interviews published in English, and includes some of the most accessible examples of Feldenkrais's writing. Taken together, the writings form a diverse and textured whole, offering many dif­ ferent points of entry for those unfamiliar with Feldenkrais's ideas and at the same time providing long-time students of the method new territory for in-depth study. "This is the most sophisticated and effective method I have seen for the prevention and reversal of deterioration of function." -Anthropologist MARGARET MEAD on the Feldenkrais Method "The Feldenkrais exercises are ingenious." - SIR YEHUDI MENUHIN, KB E, renowned violinist "Feldenkrais has studied the body in movement with a precision that I have found nowhere else." - PETER BROOK, aBE, theater and film director "Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais's method will be of great benefit to all of humanity.
