Changing Directives: The Strategic Therapy of Jay Haley

by Jeffrey K. Zeig (Editor)

In a volume edited by the Milton Erickson Foundation's founder-director, 18 contributors pay tribute to an Erickson-influenced leader in brief therapy and family therapy. Included are historical perspectives, discussions of his innovative principles, interviews with Haley in 1988 and 1999, and a bibliography of his works (e.g., Uncommon Therapy , 1973). Lacks an index. The Library of Congress and Books in Print show psychotherapy rather than therapy in the subtitle as on the cover. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
