Group Work A Humanistic Approach

In Group Work the authors address what makes humanistic groups unique. Centered on the practitioner's use of self and based on dual objectives--the development of the democratic mutual aid system and the actualization of purpose--humanistic groups encourage growth, development, and independence. The book outlines specific techniques that enable practitioners--within various settings--to achieve these objectives. "A well-written book, which demonstrates the versatility of group work and which, while presenting one particular approach to such work, will not be without interest to practitioners employing alternative approaches." --Group Analysis "The authors provide a thorough practical analysis of intervention issues within a well-articulated humanistic approach. A fine testimony to social group work." --The Le Travailleur Social WorkerGlassman, Urania is the author of 'Group Work A Humanistic Approach' with ISBN 9780803934542 and ISBN 0803934548.
