About This Item
Melbourne, Brunswick: Scribe Publications, 2019. Reprint ed.. Paperback octavo, very good condition, black & white photos, pages faintly toned, minor edgewear. 400g pp. Judith Hoare relates the true story of the little-known Australian G.P. who revolutionised how we see the defining problem of our era: anxiety. Dr Weeks wrote 'Self Help for Your Nerves', which was first published in 1962 and is still in print. The anxiety treatment pioneered by Dr Weekes is now at the cutting edge of modern psychotherapies. This book is the first to tell the story of how a mistaken diagnosis of tuberculosis led to heart palpitations and anxiety, beginning her fascinating personal journey to a practical treatment for anxiety that put the power to heal into the hands of the individual.
