cover 6 social event categories describing the behaviour of adults towards the target child, and 19 child behaviours grouped into 5 broad categories compliance-opposition, autistic (i.e. social withdrawal), play, work and social. All categories are clearly defined and the manual provides examples both of correct and incorrect usage. The manual makes clear the rules for coding categories simultaneously within intervals, but it is not clear whether the implicit hierarchical nature of some of the rules affects the relationships across categories.

The second part of the book turns to important technical matters such as the appropriate level of analysis of social behaviour and ways of trying to quantify salient variables. Both the social-drive model of Gewitz and Baer, and the social-learning (modelling) model of Bandura are criticized on the grounds that they each present a one-directional model of children's social learning. What is needed is a model which recognizes the reciprocity of social learning, and what such a conceptualization needs is adequate statistical models allowing such interactions to be analysed sequentially. Having raised these valuable criticisms, the authors somewhat naively turn to the currently popular field of ethology and herald it as containing some of the tools they see as needed in this field of enquiry. This reliance on a technology not noted for its concern with either the reliability or validity of its observations unnecessarily weakens the arguments put forward.

One of the major conclusions of the Foster Report was that there was a strong case for legislation in the United Kingdom to control the practice of psychological medicine. Following the publication of that Report in December 1971, the Department of Health & Social Security invited comments. At a meeting, held on 24th May 1974, at the initiative of the British Psycho-Analytical Society, between officials of the DHSS and representatives of seven organisations representing practitioners of psychotherapy, Sir John Foster's recommendations were further discussed. Following that meeting, the Department in a letter dated 22nd January 1975 suggested that the organisations concerned might wish to consider establishing a joint Working Party which could develop the proposals in more detail in consultation with others.

4. It is true that in the past caring professions which are regulated by law have not had to prove the value of their training for the public. However, unless there is general agreement on the training required to produce benefits to the public in measurable terms, then such precedents cannot reasonably be used to justify extension to psychotherapy, but are themselves of questionable value in protecting the public. If it is desired to proceed from the standpoint of the protection of psychotherapists rather than the public, that is a matter for the Working Party to decide, but it is not a view to which the BABP would subscribe.

Information collected from approximately one hundred males with sex disorders was analysed in order to attempt to identify some of the causes of the more important sex dysfunctions in men. Those conditions receiving special attention were erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation and heterophobia. The information gathered comprised those parameters thought to be relevant from the patients' social, sexual and medical histories. Some thirty independent parameters were recorded including a limited psychometric assessment. Information on social class, education, family structure, parent-child relationships, traumatic experiences were quantified as far as possible and to this were added data from the patients sexual history; masturbation patterns, the frequency, pattern and variety of sexual outlet, the nature of his fantasies and so on. Information was also collected on somatotype, relevant medical indices, and smoking and alcohol consumption.

With limited therapeutic resources, increasing demands for behavioural psychotherapy impose rationing by long waiting lists. Every patient taken on for treatment denies it to another who has to wait. Given this constraint, therapists can help many more patients by concentrating their scarce time on sufferers likely to show tangible improvement with brief treatment. This policy was applied to the treatment of 42 neurotics (mainly phobics and obsessive-compulsives) who completed exposure treatment with nurse-therapists in a mean of 9 sessions (16 hours). A cost-effectiveness study was mounted of the year before and after treatment.
