Basic Family Therapy

by Philip Barker

The third edition of this established text provides an eclectic, readable, and up-to-date introduction to family therapy. It offers a basic orientation to the field and covers all the main contemporary schools of family therapy. The book also presents a coherent model of therapy which students
can apply as they start learning the skills they need to work effectively with families. This thoroughly revised work fully discusses the considerable advances in this rapidly progressing area, including new theoretical ideas and innovative techniques which have developed in the six years since the
second edition was published.
