Focusing on how to provide effective individual treatment within psychoeducational and psychotherapeutic groups, this text examines the structural properties of such groups as organizational entities in their own right. It is divided into sections covering foundations and applications. The former looks at the history and epistemology of the grouping process, considering both practical and philosophical questions. The latter looks at specific psychoeducational and psychotherapeutic uses of the group medium, from which the reader can expect to gain both in-depth understanding of the human grouping process and a practical knowledge of how to organize, facilitate, and manage collective treatment regimens. The final chapter considers the logistics of small-group participation and the mythic roots of small-group culture.
