description: Nucho (emerita, U. of Maryland School of Social Work) differentiates human thought into two sets of symbolic processes and argues that the "prelogical or primary process thought," strongly related to vision, should be fully integrated with logical, rational cognition for full mental functioning. She presents a "psychocybernetic" model of psychotherapy that seeks to integrate the two mental processes using both visual and verbal means. After presenting the theoretical background to the model, she describes the application in terms of art therapy and ways of integrating it with more traditional forms of therapy Annotation 2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
