Animal phobias are intense fears of relatively hamrless animals like spiders, mice, or cats. The cause of these phobias is largely unknown. In this book, the various animal phobias are systematically ordered and an explanatory theory is provided for each. The central propostion is that animal phobias are caused by problems in interpersonal functioning. In other words, they reflect the phobic person's inability to deal with particular kinds of interpersonal relationships. The greater the shortcoming, the stronger the fear.
