Editorial Reviews
Booknews
A handbook offering the first application resource to mental health practitioners interested in solution-focused brief therapy. The 25 therapists providing the framework for integrating problem and solution focused approaches into therapy suggest interesting alternatives to long-term psychotherapy and to some extent defend brief therapy against its theoretical opponents, particularly in the cases of chronic mental illness which is seen as untreatable by this type of therapy. Thus, the case studies make arguments against such assumptions and look at models in domestic violence treatment, hospital and school care, and grief therapy, as well as review available research on client and therapist perceptions.
