Summary: much-needed theory for bodywork
Review: An extremely articulate and thoughtful work that provides a much-needed framework for understanding how psychotherapy emphasizing the body is (or can be) effective. There is still a paucity of meaningful theoretical writing on this theme. Excellent.

Summary: a college student w/an interest in Reichian works
Review: Intended as a textbook for professionals and students of Reichian bodywork, "The Body in Recovery", offers the most comprehensive overview of up-to-date techniques and exercises I've seen in print anywhere. However, the text lacks illustrations, which may frustrate some readers who find it difficult to imagine some of the techniques and exercises being described. Conger shows himself, by far, the most thoughtful and original integrationist of various psychotherapeutic approaches with a body-oriented model. Unlike other bioenergetists, (M. Brown, J. Pierrakos) who seem to go off in mystical directions and add little to Lowen and Reich's fundamental understanding of the body as the center of growth and change, there can be no question of where Conger stands.

Summary: Recovery of the Left Out Part
Review: John Conger uses Jungian structure to help us honor, respect, and read the body for deeper core healing of the person. He clearly shows how our body is an arcive of information to give us the map to more and more freedom and meaning in our lives....The Body in Recovery is a map for the recovery of the TRUE SELF. Somantic signals have meaning and logic that can move us on the Individuation Process toward more and more meaning and purpose for our LIVES.Barbara James MA CBT LMFT LMHC
