Description
Summary:This article reports the results of a survey of a representative sample of the membership of the Christian Association for Psychological Studies International to discover the books and audio-visuals which would be endorsed as most helpful with a variety of “problems” in living. The areas to which the sample was asked to respond were self-concept, parenting, singleness, marriage and family, finances, dating, midlife crises and aging, emotional conflict, sex therapy, homosexuality, divorce, death and dying, assertiveness, guilt, and counseling theory. In addition, respondents were asked to note the Christian book which had most influenced their therapeutic approach and to indicate whom they considered to be the most influential Christian writer in the field of psychotherapy at the present time. Some comments are made about the survey results and an annotated bibliography of the books identified as “useful” by the respondents is included.
