Customer Reviews

This is a technical but very informative book for therapists

This is a review of Beavers and Hampson's clinical and research work. The very strong research background makes the clinical suggestions valid. The most impressive part of the book is that therapists can tailor their interventions based on the initial assessment of the family.
