| Summary: | "This volume describes both the practice and the theory of intensive group psychotherapy, a relatively new and rapidly developing method of treating personality disorders. It is practical in describing clinical procedures, and yet it tries to come to terms with basic theoretical problems. Part I deals with clinical technique; Part II explores the nature of the therapeutic process that is fostered by group therapy participation; Part III examines the group dynamic forces that influence the therapeutic process in the individual. Chiefly addressed to those practicing or contemplating the use of group psychotherapy, this volume with its insights into group dynamics should also be of value to social psychologists and social scientists interested in the interaction of individuals in groups"--Preface.
