The most brilliant and intuitive, as well as the clearest written, work in this field. It is unpretentious yet clearly the most authoritative work that has been published." NORMAN CAMERON, Ph.D. Professor of Psychiatry Yale University School of Medicine Here is an intensely practical book that gives specific illustrations of how therapy can be implemented in play contacts, and tells how the toys of the playroom can be vivid performers and aids in growth. As she did with DIBS IN SEARCH OF SELF, Dr. Axline has taken true case histories from the rich mine of verbatim case material of children referred for play therapy, choosing children ranging in age, problem, and personality. It's all here in an important and rewarding book for parents, teachers, and anyone who comes in contact with children.
The classic of child therapy. Dibs will not talk. He will not play. He has locked himself in a very special prison. And he is alone. This is the true story of how he learned to reach out for the sunshine, for life . . . how he came to the breathless discovery of himself that brought him back to the world of other children.
Este volumen está basado en la historia real de Dibs, un niño con problemas que logró reconstruir su sí mismo con su propio esfuerzo. Esto fue posible también gracias a la terapia de juego, tal como se describe minuciosamente a lo largo del libro mediante la transcripción, una a una, de las sesiones terapéuticas. La terapia de juego llevada a cabo por la psicóloga Virginia Axline, proporcionó a Dibs las condiciones relacionales que le permitieron explorar y elaborar su experiencia interna consigo mismo y con las personas significativas que le rodeaban. Aunque sin duda se trata de un libro de gran relevancia para los especialistas en terapia, también lo es para cualquier persona interesada por el aún desconocido mundo infantil y la repercusión, en el día a día, de las relaciones en el seno de las familias o de la escuela.
This is the story of a little boy named Dibs. He would not talk. He would not play. Judged mentally defective, he was oblivious both to other children and to his teacher; in reality he was a brilliant, lonely child trapped in a prison of fear and rage, a prison from which only he could release himself. And, through psychotherapy and love, he did. December Monday 20 Dibs is the only real person I ever met in the classroom who could teach me what it means to be a complete person.
