I think this is a great book describing narrative therapy. Easy to understand and follow.
Finally, a crossover book with depth!

With great sensitivity and understanding, Dr. Diamond takes us on a poignant and poetic journey with his clients -- all of whom were transformed by the narrative approach to their struggles. This book offers a positive and refreshingly creative look at issues that have universal significance. A compelling read that touches the heart as well as the mind. I gifted my family and friends with this book, and highly recommend you do the same.
For Anyone Who Knows an Alcoholic
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This beautifully written book describes the author's clinical discovery and use of the power of letter writing for (initially) adolescent alcohol and drug abusers whose lives had left them with too much felt and unsaid. It teaches patience and realism in the face of addiction while unfurling a technique which builds compassion and connection on both sides of the treatment equation. Hurray for Jonathan Diamond! I look forward to his next book and recommend this one wholeheartedly to professionals and laypersons alike.
