Published by <strong>Routledge,</strong> 112 volumes in total are being brought together under the name <em>The International Behavioural and Social Sciences Library: Classics from the Tavistock Press</em>.<br> Reproduced here in facsimile, this volume was originally published in 1980 and is available individually.
