Reviews

Throughout the book Dennis Brown's personality and capacities show through. He is deeply devoted both to psychoanalysis and to group analysis, thinks and writes simply and clearly and has left us a rich legacy...It should be widely read, certainly by group analysts but hopefully by other members of our far flung group psychotherapy community. - Malcomb Pines, Psychodynamic Practice
