Rezensionen

"Choudhuri and McCarthy's book should be on every group worker's shelf. The Fundamentals of Group Process Observation fills a large gap in the literature related to the widely used but under addressed role of process observation in group work. The highly accessible chapters are written by renowned group work experts who effectively bridge the research and practice literatures with illustrative case examples. I look forward to synthesizing the book into both my content and clinical courses across my work with master's and doctoral students, as well as within my group work in professional development and servant leadership."

"Scholars, educators, students, and group workers will finally have a resource that explores the use of process observations in a variety of group settings and structures. Process observations are invaluable tools for understanding how the process of interactions impacts the functioning of a group. However, before this book, there was no resource that covered all aspects of process observations, from skills needed to ethical concerns. This book belongs on the shelf of group workers in all fields and will be of particular value to group facilitators using process observers as well as practitioners who do or aspire to include process observation as part of their professional repertoire."

"Wow! If you are looking to learn about process observation in groups, this is the book! The editors and authors cover the entire subject of process observation. You will be thrilled if you are wanting to learn what process observation is; how it is done; when it is done, and the different kinds of process observation. A much needed book for the field of group counseling."
