“As the era of well-meaning, but misguided victimology wanes, psychotherapists are rediscovering the hope and resiliency that permeate the timeless therapeutic strategies of Milton H. Erickson. The authors, family and insiders who know Dr. Erickson best, lucidly and impressively convey new insights into the philosophy of healing that is at the core of his psychotherapeutic genius. By understanding that healing is the activation of inner resources during the process of recovery, making life a continuous process of rehabilitation, psychotherapists can markedly improve their therapeutic effectiveness and bring new hope to their patients.” |

TAILORED TO A WORLDWIDE AUDIENCE
Hope & Resiliency has a broad relevancy that makes this study of Erickson’s work unique. It was created using a team approach. After the initial compilation of materials, the framework was shown to colleagues from many different areas to refine its contents. Dan Short then created an international team of authors, from Italy, Germany, French speaking Belgium, Mexico, Spain, Japan, Russia, Latvia, and Brazil to write adaptations, creating a cluster of books, each reflecting a differing cultural milieu.
Each version of Hope & Resiliency uses the same core material and case examples; however, the original text has not been translated in the traditional manner. Each version is an adaptation in which the local co-author modifies and tailors contents to address culturally specific ideas and concepts. Hope and Resiliency is transformed by the addition of indigenous literature and culturally relevant anecdotes into a work that is specific to the culture in which it is created. These elements provide individuality for each of the texts.
The project is not limited by the personal experiences of the original American author, rather it represents the combined resources of larger numbers of highly talented individuals, and reflects the differing circumstances and ideas of people around the world. Not only are the local ideas important to the contexts in which each version is being written, but with a background of familiarity novel concepts are more readily assimilated. As much is to be learned from the differences as from the commonalities. Cultural circumstances shape understandings, and this work exemplifies the universal relevancy of Hope and Resiliency.
