Description

The "Quiet Therapies" are a group of five Buddhist-based psychotherapies from Japan, so named by the author because they all require the client to spend time in some form of isolated introspection. To call them "psychotherapies" in the Western sense of that term, however, is somewhat misleading, since the purpose of these procedures is not to cure or ameliorate symptoms but rather to inculcate an uncomplaining acceptance so that a family and social contribution can be made by the sufferer in spite of symptomatic disability.

Author Biography:

David K. Reynolds is recognized as the leading Western authority on Japanese psychotherapies. He is a former faculty member of the UCLA School of Public Health, the USC School of Medicine, and the University of Houston. His books have been published by university presses (California, Chicago, Hawaii, and New York) and popular presses in the U.S., Japan, China, Europe, Australia, and elsewhere. In 1988 the World Health Organization sent Dr. Reynolds to China to train psychiatrists there in Constructive Living. He currently lectures and conducts workshops around the Pacific, including approximately three months in spring and three months in fall in Japan lecturing and consulting in Japanese. He is the only non-Japanese to receive the Kora Prize and the Morita Prize by the Morita Therapy Association of Japan.
