Every time I pick up a Yalom book I ask myself why I have waited so long to read another one. His books are a pleasure to read and speak to people on all levels of experience and expertise. The title of this book says it all and is the perfect book for someone who will be working in an inpatient setting. This is a must-read for all professionals working with this population and speaks to the challenges and frustrations of this environment.

The oldest but still the best book on inpatient group therapy. Both seasoned professionals and laymen will come away with valuable ideas after reading this book.

Yalom identifies the pros and cons of conducting group therapy in inpatient settings. He provides excellent advice about how to conduct group therapy in what is perceived by many to be a difficult setting in which to conduct group therapy. I refer to this book frequently and highly recommend it.

Fast delivery and in good to great condition at a good price! Can't wait to read it.

As a tech on a psych unit, I am often forced to run groups with the psychos. It's me against them and they got me outnumbered. After reading this book, I went into my sesion with guns blazing. The nuts didn't know what hit 'em. read the book and be well armed.
