Rezensionen

"This book is an excellent resource for students, clinicians, and researchers who study Bowenian theory. The strength of this book is in its detailed analysis of the concept of differentiation, which is supported by current research and further explained by application to real cases. It is a must for any clinician's shelf." - Phyllis Erdman, PhD, Associate Dean for Academic Affairs, Washington State University

"Differentiation is a challenging concept. Each contributor to this volume brings his or her lens to it. To some degree this means that each author's own thinking is a large part of what they present. Nevertheless, the opportunity to follow these journeys into the theory makes a solid contribution to the reader's own journey." - Ona Cohn Bregman, co-editor, Bringing Systems Thinking to Life: Expanding the Horizons for Bowen Family Systems Theory

"With this book, Dr. Titleman successfully continues on his quest to make the core concepts of Bowen Family Systems Theory accessible and understandable to a whole new generation of systems thinkers. He has drawn from a wide sample of Bowen based practitioners, and distilled from them their best thinking about one of Bowen's best known, but least understood ideas. And he has done so in a way that invites both novice and seasoned expert to re-examine what they thought they knew about this central tenet of Bowen's theory. It is a crowning achievement, and should be welcomed by all who seek to know more about the complexities of family life and human relationships." - Christopher F. Burnett, Psy.D., Associate Professor of Human Relationship Systems, Nova Southeastern University
