Abstract

This book provides ... coverage in a thematic organization that helps students gain a more insightful understanding of how groups work. It covers key theories ... by relating [them] to the purposes of groups and to relevant leadership skills. Through [out, the text] helps students reflect, interpret, and develop perceptive ideas on how groups function ... Selections from the writings of some of the major figures in group therapy (including Beck, Dreikurs, Rogers, and Yalom) give students a sense of how these theorists thought about groups. (Cover)
