Description
Karl Jaspers' General Psychopathology is a seminal work that critiques the scientific aspirations of psychotherapy. In this influential book, Jaspers argues that understanding human behavior requires a dual approach: explaining regular patterns and observing them (Erklärende Psychologie), as well as grasping the "meaning-relations" experienced by individuals (Verstehende Psychologie).
Written in 1910, General Psychopathology laid the foundation for the Heidelberg school of psychiatry, a movement that emphasized the importance of subjective experience and meaning in understanding human behavior. This book remains an important contribution to the field of psychology and psychiatry.
First published in 1997, this paperback edition features 922 pages and is bound in paperback. It provides a valuable insight into Jaspers' work and its significance for the development of psychotherapy and psychiatric thought.
