Families & family therapy / Salvador Minuchin.

"Family counselling and therapy is a swiftly growing subject. In recent years the importance and value of this particular branch of therapy has been increasingly recognized. Dr Minuchin is a leading therapist who has made a specialty of family therapy. In the present book he lays bare the dynamics of family interaction in a series of enthralling accounts of particular encounters. In these he quotes dramatically - and effectively - from the conversations which took place and analyzes minutely the reactions he observed. Dr Minuchin describes these mysterious processes brilliantly. Families and Family Therapy will be of special interest to psychiatrists, physicians, and counsellors. But it will also be of great interest to anyone who is intrigued by the processes of family communication."--From publisher.
