7 eBooks available.

Behavioral and Cognitive Approaches: Part II

The behavioral perspective of depression emphasizes the analysis of psychopathology in terms of observable behavior in relation to preceding and consequential events in the environment.

Interpersonal and Social Approaches: Part III

Depression must be understood in its social context (26 pgs).

Toward an Interactional Description of Depression

Depression is conceptualized here as a self-perpetuating interpersonal system. Depressive symptomatology is congruent with the developing interpersonal situation of the depressed person, and the symptoms have a mutually maintaining relationship with the response of the social environment. Essentially, the depressed person and others within his social space collude to create a system in which feedback cannot be received, and various efforts to change become system-maintaining (61 pgs).

Biomedical Approaches: Part IV

The development of a biomedical perspective of depression with a solid basis for its claims to a scientific status depended upon both serendipitous findings about drug effects and tremendous technological advances in the fields of anatomy, neurophysiology, and biochemistry (22 pgs).

Ambiguity and Controversy: An Introduction

The introduction from James Coyne’s Essential Papers on Depression. (65 pgs)

Psychodynamic Approaches: Part I

The psychodynamic perspective on depression was developed early, in an era of large scale conceptualizations and generalizations. Despite a paucity of research, the impact of the psychodynamic perspective should not be underestimated. Ideas derived from it continue to have a strong influence on the clinical practice. (25 pgs)

Essential Papers on Depression

Essential Papers on Depression gathers the classic articles on the subject of depression. It includes pieces by such core figures as Karl Abraham, Sigmund Freud, Frieda Fromm-Reichmann, Martin E. P. Seligman, Aaron T. Beck, and George Winokur. The volume is broken into four parts: Psychodynamic Approaches, Behavioral and Cognitive Approaches, Interpersonal and Social Approaches, and Biomedical Approaches.

Dunner, Sigmund Freud, Frieda Fromm-Reichmann, Marie Kovacs, Peter M. Lewinsohn, William R. Miller, Rudolf H. Moos, David Rapaport, Lynn P. Rehm, Lenore Sawyer, Martin E. P.
