It's really wonderfull to find out that somebody have done this work to put in words all these groupphenomenons. And its easy to learn to see what is happening in groups, when you have readen this book.
Theory and Practice of Group Psychotherapy
This book is absolutely THE BEST!!! An absolute must for anyone working with groups in a support/theraputic role. When I lent it to my colleague she was blown away and has now got her own copy.
A truly essential read
This book has such a monumental reputation and has been previously reviewed by so many notable figures in the world of psychotherapy, I feel I can add very little. I merely wish to add my view that this book is an essential and inspiring resource for all therapists who have an interest in the practice of group psychotherapy and human dynamics in general
