Reviews

Fisch and Schlanger have done an admirable job of addressing the difficult. They have done this with detailed description of cases and step-by-step explanations for dealing with the 'unchangeable' briefly. --Paul Watzlawick, emeritus clinical professor, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Stanford University<br> <br> Filled with rich examples, this is an incisive, carefully analyzed exploration of the pioneering practices created at MRI's Brief Therapy Center. --Carlos E. Sluzki, clinical professor of psychiatry, University of California Los Angeles<br> <br> No other book gives such detailed information for helping people who are caught in hopeless situations. Brief Therapy with Intimidating Cases shows how to succeed with the tough cases even the best therapists usually give up on. --Lucy Gill, Bramson-Gill Associates
