Howard F. Stein Author Information

Until 1967, when From Anxiety to Method in the Behavioral Sciences was published, George Devereux had been seeking a publisher for his synoptic work for over thirty years. Today, the self of the therapist and human researcher has come increasingly to be recognized as the core instrument for all understanding and treatment. If the self of the analyst is the core of healing, the self of the fieldwoker is the core of social research. The monograph under review joins contributions by G. Devereux, W. La Barre, L. B. Boyer, W. Kracke, H. F. Searles, and many others. Drawing from widely used paradigms of constructivism, hermeneutics, existentialism, and social interactionism, Hunt deepens these all through her exploration of the role of fantasies, dreams, affects, and inner conflicts in all facets of field research and cultural interpretation.

The author is a sociologist who is also an analytic research candidate. Her data sources consist of anthropological and sociological literature
