This classic volume deals with the strategies of both psychotherapists and clients as they manoeuvre around each other in the process of treatment. How a therapist induces a client to change is described within a framework of interpersonal theory and directive family therapy. This work represents a step from the study of therapy in terms of the individual to therapy as communication between at least two people.
