An Alternative Defense of Eclecticism: Responding to Kelly and Ginter.
Simon, George M.
Journal of Mental Health Counseling, v11 n3 p280-88 Jul 1989
Offers defense of eclecticism in counseling in response to critique by Ginter (1988) and in response to Kelly's (1988) reply to that critique. Distinguishes technical eclecticism from theoretical eclecticism. Employs a general systems theory to conceptualize the divergence among the various theories in a way that suggests that a synthesis of the theories is possible. (Author/ABL)
