Up to now I have refrained from comment in the hope that such abuse would end.
Having just had a happy time amongst folk who find that PCP is a helpful
tool ,theory and methods within their work in education,
,management,nursing,counselling,psychotherapy..to name but a few
domains..atthe European Personal Construct Association held at Reading I
can vouch for the high standard of academic debate,the willingness of those
with more knowledge and experience of PCP to share this with colleagues,the
delight in the contributions from newcomers,the climate of trust that
embraced the procees of the conference was refreshing.
Contacts like this is what I value within pcp alongside what I can derive
from journals,books and my own reflections. When the net began this was
also a good source of inspiration but it has gone sour.I join with Jacqui
in expressing frustration.
I do not lick anyone,s boots but I am happy to acknowledge the help those
who have offered their words of wisdom over the years and this would
include Franz Eptingwho is a kind and courteous gentleman and some of the
others Bill has verbally abused. I know Devi well and he is no Nazi look in
to his origins!
I am concerned about the numbers that have left the list and those like
myself who remain silent while the net is littered with garbage.
I am also concerened about newcomers what must they make of it?
