- Becoming A Profession: The History of Art Therapy in Britain 1940-82 [top]
Written by Diane Waller
First published on 2nd May 1991 in Great Britain by Routledge in hardback, 320pp, ISBN 0415025818
Published in 1991 in Great Britain by Routledge in paperback, 290pp, ISBN 0415058201. Cover design: Jonathan Clegg, ADL Design. Front cover illustratin: Part of the marching group of BAAT members at a protest against the Clegg report held with other paramedical professions and the Union ASTMS on 27 March, 1980
About this book: Becoming a profession is the first comprehensive historical account of the way in which art therapists achieved recognition and the strategies they employed to establish their training. It covers the period from 1940, when the term was first used in Britain, to 1982, when the Whitley Council granted art therapy its own career and salary structure. Diane Waller draws on a vast amount of previously unpublished material to show how the disciplines of art education, psychiatry and psychoanalysis were influential in giving rise to notions of 'art as healing' and 'art as expression'. She includes interviews with some of the founder art therapists of the 1940s and 1950s, and assesses their contribution in detail. She also describes the work of the British Association of Art Therapists (BAAT), and in particular the campaigns for recognition mounted by BAAT in co-operation with the trade union movement. Fascinating reading for all practising art therapists, art therapy teachers and students, Becoming a Profession will also be relevant to anyone interested in the formation and development of professions

About this book: About this book: Group analysis is a form of psychotherapy in small groups and also a method for studying groups and the behaviour of human individuals in their social aspects. Apart from a number of practical advantages, it has features of specific value. It is the method of choice for the investigation of many problems and for the treatment of many disturbances. This volume puts the method into the centre, emphasises the special features of the "group analytic situation" and the role of the conductor, or leader, in creating this situation. It tries to show what the conductor has to do in order to make all the members of his group active participants in the solution of their problems. In so doing, it shows how not only the group itself, but also how every single individual can best develop his own personality. Although the group is the field of operation, it is the optimal degree of liberation and integration of the individual which is the ultimate aim of this therapy

About this book: Born in Karlsruhe in 1898, S. H. Foulkes studied medicine in Heidelberg and Munich after the First World War, eventually qualifying in Frankfurt in 1923. During the course of his studies, his growing interest in psychology brought him into contact with the writings of Sigmund Freud, and the desire to become a psychoanalyst led him, in 1928, to Vienna where he secured a training analysis under Helene Deutsche. At the same time, he undertook psychiatric training at the University Clinic. By 1930, he had joined the Frankfurt Psychoanalytic Institute and commenced working in private practice. As it became clearer, however, that the rise of Hitler would prove the death-knell for psychoanalysis in Germany, Foukes and his family suddenly left the country for Geneva in April 1933, and shortly thereafter, at the invitation of Ernest Jones, settled in London. The outbreak of the Second World War, and a temporary removal to Exeter, led him into a deeper involvement with the concept and practice of Group Analysis and Group-Analytic Psychotherapy, the fields for which he is best known. In 1952, with others, he founded the Group-Analytic Society, and was still actively involved with teaching, lecturing and participation in group seminars when he died in July 1976. This collection of Foulkes' papers, which includes some unpublished material and some published in English for the first time, comprises not only the later Group-Analytic writings but also those from the first part of his career as a psychoanalyst. Amongst the latter, the paper 'On Introjection' is of particular interest and importance
