SynopsisThe second edition of this book contains even more information about therapeutic techniques than the first. A variety of approaches to family therapy are examined in depth, each explained by professionals who have extensive experience in working with substance abusers in family therapy. Two entirely new chapters describe different integration modalities - an emerging trend in family therapy - and there is a new chapter on substance abuse in stepfamilies.
