Editorial Reviews
Review
"I appreciate the accuracy and thorough coverage of the stages of group development, leadership skills, theory, and ethical considerations in the text. The content is solid. The discussion of theory helps reinforce concepts previously learned and integrate them with group work. Beyond the content, the information is presented in a clear way that is both readable and understandable to students. It feels like Corey is talking with you."
"It is clear, understandable, and interesting to read. Moreover, it combines the best insights and applications of the various approaches both classical and recent. …Most of my students like the text especially for its ability to break new and sometimes complicated material into readable and understandable concepts. They claim to actually enjoy reading it."
"The writing style is comfortable and at times even conversational, and conveys the author's personality and thoughts about the topics being covered. The style of writing employed in the text adds to its readability, and aids in the understanding of more difficult concepts presented in the text. I find that when the author speaks directly from his own experiences, I am better able to understand the issues/concepts/information he is discussing."
"Corey's Seventh Edition of THEORY AND PRACTICE OF GROUP COUNSELING is a comprehensive, uncomplicated, enriched, and culturally sensitive textbook which will eliminate the need for incorporating voluminous supplemental materials."
"I would definitely use this text when teaching a class on theories and techniques of group counseling. I myself used a previous edition of this text as a Master's counseling student, and found it helpful in my learning, as well as enjoyable to read. I would want to provide the same experience to my own students."

Wow, another great book by Corey. This is one of the best text books I have been lucky enough to use while working on my Master's in Social Work. Corey realy gives great examples of how the differnt theories work in group counseling. I really enjoyed the sections on REBT and Cognitive Behavioral counseling. This is a book I will keep long after graduation.
