This edition offers students a starting point for family work and shows how concepts derived from a variety of family therapy theories and other sources may be integrated into this basic approach. The student will eventually be able to treat effectively an increasing variety of both simple and complex clinical problems. Thoroughly revised to take account of the considerable advances in the field of family therapy, the book places more emphasis on Ericson's approach and strategic therapy, with expanded sections on teaching, learning and research.
