Editorial Reviews

Review
...The Anti-Group comes closer to providing answers to this discrepancy than any book on group therapy that I have ever read, and it is destined to become a classic in the field.
– Jerome S. Ganns International Journal of Group Psychotherapy

I have seldom read a book as balanced, scholarly, integrative, theoretically compelling, and faithful to the realities of clinical practice as this one...I think the Anti-Group will be a classic in the field.
–International Journal of Group Psychotherapy
