This is more a book about theory than it is about techniques and interventions. And let's be honest, as therapists we do need to know more than just a bunch of techniques ” we also need to understand the how, the why and the theories behind the techniques that we use or we become robots. This book is interesting and informative, bringing together many of the major schools of though in psychology and, in the process, making you give more thought to the how's and why's you do what it is that you do. It is a refreshing read and certainly should be read by students and newly qualified therapists although I personally think that all therapists should at least give it a go.
I would recommend this book.
