Summary: The Family Therapy Experience Written as a Novel
Comment: Carl Whitaker is known as one of the founders of family therapy in America. He had a style that could be described as "innovative," "intense," and sometimes "irrational."
Reading this book can help someone learn more about Whitaker's unique brand of family therapy, but more important than that it can help people learn about the process of family therapy and about their own family dynamics.
The reader should be able to identify with at least one of the family members in the book and empathize with their situation. In so doing, the reader is able to do some of their own "therapy" without having to pay a family counselor.
I often recommend this book to persons that I see in counseling and those that read it have come back with glowing reports.

Summary: A Fantastic Read!!!
Comment: The Family Crucible is MUCH more than a review of the tecniques involved in family therapy. It is an invaluble resource because every family, not just those in critical situations, undergoes stress, change, and conflict. I would not describe this as a "how-to" book. Rather, it's an "ah-hah" book - it would be impossible to read this without seeing some aspect of your family in the pages. VERY insightful as well as just a good read.

Summary: Fascinating..amazingly interesting!
Comment: This book is one of my favorites of all time! My "Couples and Family Therapy" professor highly recommended it- it's a hallmark book in the family therapy field. If you are interested in family dynamics- the scapegoated child, the symptomatic child, adultery, depression, promiscuity- it's all in here.
