A review of the literature of bibliotherapy is given covering approximately seventy papers. The material is divided according to certain trends and further research possibilities are outlined.
The paper deserves the attention of the analyst who believes in the educational—and therefore ultimately in the therapeutic—potentiality of reading. In no respect does the review come up to the quality of Karl Menninger's introduction to The Human Mind (Second Edition) or of William Menninger's book, Bibliotherapy.
