Age Group: 15+
Book Format: Paperback

Groupwork is a constantly evolving area, and the authors of this book seek to encourage, inspire and lure practitioners into thinking new thoughts and developing new methods. A range of groupworkers explore developments in their specific fields of practice, moving from well-established approaches towards newer ideas. Subjects covered include group therapy and spirituality, experimental groups, merging and splitting, social dreaming, playback theatre and sociodramas. Running through the book are themes such as the relationship between spiritual belief and group-analytic practice; the sustainability of working from traditional theory in an ethos of continual change; and the development of theory and practice across internally or externally constructed boundaries.
