O knihe

The Practical Handbook of Group Counseling
is written mainly as a primer to be used in group work with
children, adolescents, and parents. The first edition was
used by over three hundred colleges and universities in the
United States. Its unique design allows the reader to use
it as a ready reference for practical information. It is
presented as a text that can challenge the individual's
ideas and upon which the counselor can develop techniques
that will fit his/her personality and meet the needs of the
group.
The text was the first comprehensive
practical book in this field. It is a synthesis of the
various problems and successes that the counselor may
encounter and offers one model that may be useful in
resolving and/or enhancing some of these issues. The author
utilizes the public school setting as the vehicle for
presenting his material. Since the school is a cross
section of the population, the model proposed here can be
adapted to other social agencies that utilize group
counseling techniques.
The author, Dr. Sheldon D.
Glass, has a significant background in group work and in
child and adolescent development. He is uniquely qualified
in this area because he has completed formal training in
education, adult psychiatry, child psychiatry, and pediatrics.
