Overview

Tavistock Press was established as a co-operative venture between the Tavistock Institute and Routledge & Kegan Paul (RKP) in the 1950s to produce a series of major contributions across the social sciences. This volume is part of a 2001 reissue of a selection of those important works which have since gone out of print, or are difficult to locate. Published by Routledge, 112 volumes in total are being brought together under the name The International Behavioural and Social Sciences Library: Classics from the Tavistock Press. Reproduced here in facsimile, this volume was originally published in 1955 and is available individually. The collection is also available in a number of themed mini-sets of between 5 and 13 volumes, or as a complete collection.

In order to provide the continuity of Sullivan’s thinking, we have put into sentence form the topical outline given in his Notebook and expanded this on the basis of related material given elsewhere in this book. Beginning with the section on the Wish-Fulfilling Fantasy, the chapter is from a recorded lecture.; Part IV Towards a Psychiatry of Peoples; Chapter 22 CHAPTER 22*, Editors’ note: This chapter is mainly taken from “Towards a Psychiatry of Peoples” (Psychiatry 11:105–116). Beginning with the section headed “Whence the Urgency,” there appears an excerpt from “Remobilization for Enduring Peace and Social Progress” (Psychiatry 10:239–252; p. 244). Most of the chapter has also been reprinted in Tensions That Cause Wars, edited by Hadley Cantril (Univ. of Ill. Press, 1950).;
