Media Reviews

`With his latest volume of writings, Conscience and Critic, Keith Tudor draws (or one might better say, demands) attention to the complex sweep of ethical, political, social and cultural issues that so often lie unexamined beneath the surface of the practices of psychotherapy and counseling. As I have followed Tudor's writing for many years, he and I have moments of significant conflict and disagreement-always the mark of a provocative thinker. And while we have not always come to an agreement, Tudor's work has never failed to challenge and enliven my thinking. You will not read this book and step away unaffected or unthinking.' - William F. Cornell, M.A., TSTA-ITAA, Independent psychotherapist and trainer, winner of the ITAA Eric Berne Memorial and EATA Gold Medal Awards

`I am delighted to endorse The Selected Works of Keith Tudor. I have known Keith for 30 years both as a friend and a colleague during which time he has consistently and constantly applied himself to reflecting upon his work as a psychotherapist, trainer, teacher, supervisor, and writer: all through a political and social lens. He has been enormously influential in this field. I think his work will be a great contribution to universities, training institutions and individual practitioners, many of whom are in private practice.' - Dr. Helena Hargaden, Relational Transactional Analyst, DPsych, MSc, TSTA, UKCP Registered Integrative Psychotherapist
