Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Condition-Shipped quickly
Yalom is the master of group therapy....his work isn't the easiest to read but he is the master. If you are considering a field in clinical psychology then you will just have to deal with his lengthy book. Yalom has done extensive research and this is a great starter book for learning the ins and out of group therapy. It is also the kind of book that you will keep and refer to years to come.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Don't advertise books that you don't have in stock!
I should have read the reviews before I purchased from this unreliable seller! I ordered the book (needed it for class), and surprise surprise, the order was cancelled by the seller! Completely frustrating and a complete waste of my time! I wish that sellers that constantly receive bad reviews because they are deceitful and unscrupulous!



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - THEORY AND REALITY
Dr. Yalom is obviously an intelligent individual who appeals to graduate students in psychology with little if no knowledge of group psychotherapy.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Necessary Reading for all Psychotherapists
Yalom is necessary reading for all psychotherapists that will be conducting groups. While his theoretical orientation is more interpersonal and existential than most, it provides the necessary foundation to expand into the desired group therapy leader one in the profession will wish to become.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Yalom rocks!!
I love reading Yalom. He makes group therapy concepts flow like a river. I would give this as a gift to every student of psychology, psychiatry, nursing, social work, that I know. Not having won the lottery, I am thrilled to have it in my own library.
