A range of experienced and respected group workers explore developments in their specific fields of practice, moving from well-established approaches towards newer ideas. The authors show how group-analytic concepts can be creatively drawn on in the context of, for instance, business practice or inter-European relationships.
''This is an edited collection, which begins with the promise of an "organic" book, developed by means of group dialogue between the contributors.The book covers an intriguing range of topics, including playback theatre, social dreaming, socio-drama, psycho-political analysis, deep ecology and "alchemical" transition, all viewed through the lens of group work. The contributors are trainers, consultants and analysts, drawing mainly from psychoanalytical perspectives.''- Community CareGroupwork 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.
