This review is from: Conversational Realities: Constructing Life through Language (Inquiries in Social Construction series) (Paperback)
Having come across many references to Shotter in the writing of Harlene Anderson and others, I bought this book to expand my knowledge of social constructionism and to develop my theoretical understanding of postmodern and dialogical approaches to therapy. Unfortunately I have not found it helpful: with its fantastically complex sentence structures it is very difficult to read. This makes me wonder if (a) I am not sufficiently intelligent, or (b) it is no fact not very well written. There have been sentences I have grappled with for minutes on end, only to come to the conclusion that the sentence is incomprehensible because it is essentially ungrammatical. Perhaps some po-mo game is being played here, I don't know.
