Synopsis

The first edition of this popular book was enthusiastically received and critically acclaimed. It was the first UK published book on the use of counselling skills on the telephone, written by an author well-known for his direct and accessible style.
The second edition (unique for a book at this level) takes a look at research into counselling on the telephone, presents the story of a real-life agency and considers the impact of technology such as caller identification and freephone numbers on helping agencies.
Essentially this is a how-to-do-it book and Pete Sanders doesn't disappoint. A down to earth guide, it is packed with practical information for everyone with an interest in using counselling skills on the telephone - trainers, counsellors, volunteers and trainees. It is essential reading for anyone doing, or considering doing, telephone work.

Review

The reservation I have about Pete Sanders' book is that it says in a more succinct fashion everything I have been trying to impart in my Listening Skills Workshops these past years! Jan Korris M.E. Association Consultant
