1) Product Description
Drawing on their extensive clinical experience in working with groups, Marianne and Gerald Corey provide a realistic approach to the blending of theory with practice in group work. This best-selling text has been updated with new examples, guidelines, insights, and ideas that demonstrate how group leaders can apply the basic issues and key concepts of the group process to a variety of groups. Offering up-to-date coverage of both the "what is" and the 'how to' of group counseling, the Seventh Edition features a greater focus on group work with children, the elderly, issues in both women's and men's groups and in school settings.

Average Customer Rating: 4.5 out of 5
1) Group therapy made easy [Rating: 4 out of 5]
Easy to read and follow. A great resource for learning the first time or needing a refresher2) group process text [Rating: 5 out of 5]
This book is a must in the field of counseling. Clear, thorough, and concise. Also, Amazon shipped so quickly I had it before many in my class who had ordered from different vendors.3) Organized, thorough textbook for group therapy [Rating: 4 out of 5]
Marianne and Gerald Corey have written a well-organized text. The information was provided in a logical order and in an easy-to-read format. It covers group process as well as basic practical advice for the group leader - how to form a group, screen clients, where to meet, how long the meetings should last, etc. The group therapy taught in its pages is based on a thinking, feeling, and behaving model that can be integrated into group practice with other theoretical orientations. This book was used in a masters counseling class on groups, and half our class was based on our own experiential group. The sections on the different stages of a group were particularly pertinent as it mimicked our experience. My only complaint with this text is that in the final four chapters, there were perhaps too many group proposals. I tired of reading all of them but that could have been end-of-semester inertia.4) Great Book [Rating: 5 out of 5]
The book was great and helped me understand the porcess but my professor was also great. Great professor and great book=knowledge!!!!!!!!!5) Groups: Process and Practice [Rating: 5 out of 5]
It was in good shape, but it took along time to get to my home.
