In the 1960s, Dr. Claire Weekes used behavioral techniques to help people suffering from anxiety, depression, agoraphobia, and other disabling psychological maladies. Her approaches helped hundreds of thousands of people, and were publicized through lectures, audiotapes, television interviews and books. This book, published in 1989 (when Weekes was 86) contains transcripts of 7 interviews that she did for BBC television, a BBC radio interview, and transcripts of talks that she gave at White Plains Hospital in New York, all from the 1980s. The interviews and presentations offer a summary of her methods and recommendations to patients. In addition, more than any of her other books, it offers tidbits of biographical information dating back to her years as a scientist and as a medical student, and a few tantalizing reflections on aspects of her long life and career. Some may be attracted to this book for glimpses that it offers into the personality and career of this remarkable scientist and physician; others will appreciate its advice and self- help treatments for anxiety and related mental states.
