Goonery in British clinical psychology: the Duracic spark

Stanley Rachman, known to his colleagues as Jack Durac, has had a powerful influence on British clinical psychology. It is hypothesised that Duracic g oonery has played a major role in the development of new treatments, as wel l as in the training of new clinical psychologists. Objective, historical e vidence is assembled to support the view that this Duracic spark should be brought out into the field of scientific discourse and should not be hidden behind more comfortable jargon.
