AUTHORITY OF EXPERIENCE: Essays on Buddhism and Psychology
by John Pickerings
Over the past few decades, Buddhism has deepened its presence in the West. Therapists, scholars and scientists have now had extended contact with authentic teachings. As a result, Buddhist teachings and practices are becoming integrated with those of Western psychology in a more productive way. At the same time, developments within and around science have open up the Western world view. The decline of mechanism and positivism offers new opportunities to bring together Western and Buddhist views of the mind and its relationship to its surroundings. The purpose of this collection of essays is to present some contemporary views on this progressive integration.

BUDDHISM AND PSYCHOTHERAPY: The Healing of Heart Doctrine
by M.P. Hall
This book constitutes a unique approach to psychotherapy. Behind the symbolism of various Buddhist images is the greatest psychotherapeutic formula so far recorded. Buddha gave to his disciples, and through them to the world, the way of liberation from suffering-the simple path of right conduct that alone can bring happiness to this world.
Buddhism and Psychotherapy will be of practical assistance to students of psychology, comparitive religion, and art. Mr. Hall gives the interpretations and psychological meanings of the beliefs and practices of Mahayana Budhhists adapted to the requirements of the non-Buddhist reader. The recommendations, while based on Buddhist philosophy, are so universally applicable that they will help sincere persons of any faith to understand their own beliefs more completely.

REALITY BETWEEN: A Buddhist Approach to Addiction, Grief and Psychotherapy
by Kenneth A Lucas
In "The Reality Between, author Ken Lucas takes up where Elisabeth Kubler-Ross left off. Lucas elegantly makes the case that although psychotherapists have limited the use of Kubler-Ross's "Five Stages of Grief" to physical death, patients can be taught to see anger, depression, and even addiction in their own grief context. "The Reality Between shows how therapists can train themselves to hear the dozens of grief states their patients are experiencing at every single moment! Most psychotherapists fail to see their patients drowning in grief. Anger and depression are grief stages, not simply "stressors" or stand-alone issues. Most people die unhappily in the middle of Ku bler-Ross's grief stages. As humans, we have a duty to become just as fluid and dynamic as the ever-changing world around us. Placing grief into a much larger, more fundamental Eastern context is a must for every psychotherapist.
