The Psychic Treatment of Nervous Disorders: The Psychoneuroses and Their Moral Treatment

""The Psychic Treatment of Nervous Disorders: The Psychoneuroses and Their Moral Treatment"" is a book written by Paul Dubois, a Swiss psychiatrist, and published in 1909. The book focuses on the treatment of psychoneuroses, which are mental disorders that cause physical symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and hypochondria. Dubois believed that these disorders were caused by a conflict between the conscious and unconscious mind, and that the key to treating them was to address this conflict through moral and psychological means. He advocated for a holistic approach to treatment, which included psychotherapy, hypnosis, and other non-medical interventions. The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of the psychoneuroses and their causes, while the second part outlines Dubois' approach to treatment. The third part includes case studies of patients who were successfully treated using his methods. Overall, ""The Psychic Treatment of Nervous Disorders"" is a pioneering work in the field of psychotherapy and remains relevant today as a foundational text in the treatment of psychoneuroses.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
