<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Psychodrama is the first role playing method to be developed and used psychiatrically, "to heal...minds". Developed by J.L. Moreno in turn of the century Vienna, psychodrama is the parent of all role playing methods that are used to heal psychiatric ailments or "role train" desired behaviors. Any form of role play that you see used "experientially", has its roots in psychodrama. The current popularity of neuroscience and trauma research has placed psychodrama in the forefront of mind/body methods as Moreno was the first to say that "the body remembers what the mind forgets" and to identify the need to include the full person in the therapeutic milieu. He understood that if you leave the body out of therapy you are leaving significant parts of the mind out as well. Moreno is considered to be the father of group psychotherapy and is the first person to have treated people in groups, his work represents the turning point from treating people "in isolation to treating them in groups". Moreno felt that all people are fundamentally "role players" and that the "self emerges from the roles we play". Hence working with the role gives one a royal road into the psyche, so that motivations for behaviors can become more transparent and explicit. Psychodrama also provides practice in embodying, experiencing and thus training new behaviors. Psychodrama is sometimes referred to as "spontaneity training" as it develops spontaneity and creativity in those who experience it. Understanding the mind of it's creator, namely J.L. Moreno allows those who do psychodrama to use it more safely and with a greater understanding as to why they are doing what they are doing.Moreno created the triadic system of psychodrama, sociometry and group psychotherapy, all of which are introduced in this seminal work.
