The papers in this book focus on many different aspects of the therapeutic relationship, including the self of the therapist, working cross-culturally and with language difference, impasse, risk taking, the place of research, and the influence of theory. Clinical examples illustrate successful as well as less succssful outcomes in therapy.

This collection as a whole reflects some of the deepest ideals and practices of both traditions at their best such as holding complexity, and tolerating contradiction.

Examines postmodernism and its expression in family therapy, raising questions about realities and realness, the subjective process of truth, and the experience of self.
