First published in 1967, the original blurb reads: This book is intended to give the intelligent lay reader a comprehensive view of the subject of psychotherapy, the treatment of nervous disorders by mental means. These disorders are of increasing importance on account of their wide-spread nature and of the misery they produce. It describes the development of psychotherapy as employed by the most primitive peoples and races, through animal magnetism and hypnotism to the more modern analytical schools of Freud, Jung and Adler. It sets out in particular to give the positive contributions of these various systems, although this does not preclude criticism of their weaknesses and more dubious theories. Dr Hadfield has had the widest experience, having treated psychoneurotic disorders for over fifty years, including the war neuroses in the two world wars, both in the Navy and in the Army; and, as Lecturer in the University of London in the subject for over forty years, he has had the opportunity to systematize the knowledge thus obtained. As a result of this experience he has come to conclusions as to the nature, causes and treatment of such disorders differing somewhat from those of the established Schools, and it is these findings which are given in the latter part of the book under the title, ‘Direct Reductive Analysis’. The book will be useful to all those – teachers and parsons as well as medicals – who have to deal with human beings and their aberrations, and to them it is addressed.

This supernatural thriller takes a lighthearted look at the heavy-handed in the spiritual world. It is the true story of one womans courage and determination to overcome supernatural targeted oppression and suppression against all odds. Seemingly alone and defenseless, divine intervention would reveal itself time and time again to turn the tide in her favor to insure not only her survival, but her thrival. This is a trip to the inner heart and soul, in order to survive the external forces that were determined to force fear, destruction, carnage, and chaos. It is a feminine perspective and survivors guide when you find yourself confronted with the dark side of the supernatural, intended to lighten the load of a burden she carried for twelve years. The battles were supernatural, the fight with the unseen forces was never fair or provoked, and came out of the blue and at random. The choices of others and the universal laws of attraction had unleashed a war zone in her personal life after the events of 9/11, and she had to discover for herself how to cleanse, clean, and clear it out of her life. This is a journey of discovery of the self. We heal, we reveal, we recover to assist others who struggle with dark days and deeds.
