ABSTRACT
The views of the nonverbal I present in Chapter 3 are related to the work of the Boston Change Process Study Group (BCPSG), writers and clinicians whose views are similar to mine in some respects and different in others. Both the similarities and the differences between us are significant enough to deserve detailed consideration. But to include such a consideration in the text would have the effect of interrupting and distracting from my own argument, and so I have decided to present the relevant points in this appendix, which can either be read independently or during a brief hiatus in the reading of Chapter 3. (I have indicated in that chapter where this material becomes most relevant.) I first take up the BCPSG concept of “implicit relational knowing,” and then proceed to other and broader points of comparison between my work and theirs.
