Abstract

Gavin Miller's I Miracles of Healing: Psychotherapy and Religion in Twentieth-century Scotland i serves as a noteworthy example of the recent scholarly interest in the regional histories of psychotherapeutic traditions. The dialogues, Miller suggests, 'consistently argue that the evocation of spiritual experience is essential to counselling', although the historical connection Miller posits between them and the Davidson Clinic, or the other figures explored, is not especially persuasive (p. 114).
