‘A huge undertaking and a great success... There are many good things here, and this book is strongly recommended' - Self & Society

‘The development of Counselling... is so well illustrated... an interesting book... its component papers are short and can be read free-standing. It would also be a useful addition to libraries where students of counselling are looking for support or challenge for an argument. And, for members of BAC, it is a reminder of the breadth and complexity of the unfolding task of counsellors and their Association' - Counselling, The Journal of the British Association for Counselling
