Rezensionen

Core Principles of Group Psychotherapy: A Training Manual for Theory, Research, and Practice lives up to its ambitious title. It successfully integrates well-established basic principles of group therapy, traditional and emerging theoretical approaches, significant research, and applicability to a wide variety of populations and settings. It will prove useful for beginning and experienced group therapists alike, and it is designed to provide a template for effective teaching of a group therapy course.

Although I am not given to sweeping statements, I find myself compelled to offer one here about this marvelous

book. This is a remarkable compendium of valuable information about the theory and practice of group therapy along with the research support for various group therapy models. An expansive range of core principles and the techniques that derive from them are presented in a beautifully organized and eminently readable manner and will provide useful material for novice and experienced clinicians alike.

Core Principles of Group Psychotherapy by Kaklauskas and Greene is an important and timely new group therapy manual that balances being comprehensive and accessible. It provides an overview and comparison of various approaches to group therapy, inviting readers to identify the perspective that best fits them, which is a key component to effective therapy. Both pragmatic and thought provoking, this volume is an extremely valuable contribution to the group therapy literature.

The Core Principles of Group Psychotherapy provides both entry and advanced level group therapists the current essential knowledge and skills needed for effective group leadership. The enduring and modern group theories and evidence-based practices and applications that are presented should serve to help therapists hone their own leadership styles and facilitate their ongoing professional growth. The Core Principles is highly recommended for group leaders who want to advance their knowledge and applications of effective and evidence based group leadership understanding and skills.

Francis Kaklauskas and Les Greene's book, Core Principles of Group Psychotherapy, is a wonderful addition to the growing literature on group psychotherapy. Its uniqueness emerges in its being grounded both in practice and research, and its serving as a practical manual. The editors have made a huge effort to include as many core topics in group therapy and beyond. I was especially impressed by the extended and detailed chapter on a multicultural perspective in group work, which is very attuned to current crucial issues in the USA. Another important chapter is on the ethical group therapist. This book will become very valuable to teachers and students, practitioners and scholars alike".

The new Principles Manual is a must have guide to the latest in group psychotherapy research and practice.
