About this title

Review:

"I've waited for a new edition for quite some time... I think Berg, Landreth, and Fall provide a philosophical stance on group counseling that lacks in other mechanistic books, which makes it even more important in terms of its role in maintaining a true process-oriented style...this is informative, clear, and experiential in its message."
-Eric Schmidt, Texas State University, 2004
"This textbook on group counseling is one that sets a new standard and takes counselors and counselor educators to new levels. It is strong in its presentation and offers a wide range of information on performing group counseling with special populations. The authors have done a great job of writing a readable text that contains a great deal of usable information.."
-John Arman, Heidelberg College, 2004
