.The Presenting Past: The Core of Psychodynamic Counselling and Therapy

by: Michael Jacobs

December 01, 2005
This step by step introduction to counselling is essential for anyone commencing on the path to counselling or just wishing to improve their counselling and listening skills. Whether this is for professional or personal reasons, "The Presenting Past" is at a level that appeals to everyone.

Whilst reading The Presenting Past, you feel Jacobs is personally taking you by the hand and leading you one step at a time into the amazing world of counselling, making you analyse your own life on the way...

I particularly enjoyed the way the book encourages you to write notes and answer the tasks provided, although this appears daunting at first, it is well worth the effort.

.Andalucia (Pallas Guides)

by: Michael Jacobs

November 22, 2005
If you are really interested in Andalucia, not just to lie on the beaches or take photos of the Alhambra then this book is an absolute must. In the great tradition of travel writing, it is so much more than just a guide book. Jacobs writes with real clarity and passion. If you are planning a trip to Andalucia the investment of a few pounds in this book, will definitely be worth it. If you are not planning a trip, but have an interest in the land of Carmen,Flamenco, bullfighting etc.then it is a must! First class book.

by: Michael Jacobs

July 29, 1993
The book is aimed at people embarking on a counselling course for the first time. The book contains information on how to listen, boundaries and other ground rules for counsellors. However, the book is somewhat outdated. The language used is terrible. Michael Jacobs clearly lacks the ability to put his point across in one paragraph, normally it takes at least 6/7 paragraphs to say one things. This makes the subject matter rather tedious for the reader and you are always under the impression that you have already read this!
On the other hand, when you have sifted through the ridiculous writing style most of what is conveyed is of value although certain points, such as those on body language are now outmoded and in a counselling situation certainly not ... Read More:
