Group Work with Adolescents Reviews

Written directly from the front lines of work with adolescents, this book shows Malekoff to possess a towering sensitivity to what life is like in the drug and violence charged world these youth inhabit; into that world of fatalism, Malekoff brings a breath of hope. - Sue Henry, D.S.W., University of Denver

Presents group work practive honestly, portraying its dilemmas, its raggedness, its rawness, and its genius ... This book should be read by beginning human services students, school teachers, seasoned clinicians, developmental specialists, graduate students, and faculty ... It is a fine textbook for beginning and advances levels. - James A. Garland, L.I.C.S.W., Boston University School of Social Work
