Summary:

In this dictionary Professor Reber resolves some of the problems raised by psychological terms. It is, however, much more than a compendium of raw definitions. As well as focusing on what a given technical description means, the author shows how the term is actually employed, its connotations and how it has been used - and abused- in the past. The result is a volume of enormous interest, written with the broadest possible audience in mind.
