Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Mervelous
A real masterpiece! Astonishingly comprehensive, most excellently and lucidly written,interesting, profound, convincing, frank and open-minded, and contains, in my opinion, the best of group thinking and pracice.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The BIBLE of group therapy texts!

There is a newer edition but there was $45. difference-not work the extra. It's been a bible of group for my interns and myself, a psychiatric social worker with mentally ill offenders.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - THE book for leading psychotherapeutic groups
This book is simply the best there is for the novice as well as the experienced group leader. I plan on keeping it in my bookcase for years to come.
