TY - GEN AB - In this book, Paul Biegler argues that the insights patients gain from the therapeutic process promote autonomy. He shows that depression is a disorder in which autonomy is routinely and extensively undermined and that physicians have a moral obligation to promote the autonomy of depressed patients. He concludes that medical practitioners have an ethical imperative to prescribe psychotherapy- cognitive behavior therapy in particular- for depression.--[book jacket] AU - Biegler, Paul, CN - Proquest Ebook Central CN - RC537 CY - Cambridge, Mass. : DA - c2011.
