The Counselor and the Group, fourth edition Reviews

'Trotzer leaves nothing untouched. He engages the ardent beginner with a vast array of strategies and learning activities while empowering the seasoned group leader with integrated theory and concepts. The guidelines and interventions that he develops in his new chapter Crisis Response represent an advanced dimension in group counseling. He has brought to us a unique perspective in crisis management that not only relates to our institutions but to our world.' - Marguerite (Peg) Carroll, Ed.D., Professor Emeritus, Counselor Education, Fairfield University, USA

'I have followed Trotzer's work from the first edition of his group book to this current edition. The first edition was outstanding and each subsequent revision has improved, with this edition being no exception. Trotzer is a clear writer who uses excellent examples and relevant material to illustrate the group work model he has evolved over the years. The model is elegant and practical, and students understand and apply the approach with enthusiasm. His fourth edition has moved the group work process a level higher with updated information on diversity in group work, standards of training, applications to families, evaluation processes and, most of all, new and exciting information about leadership and organizational skills. In short, Trotzer's outstanding book just got better, making it a must have for those teaching graduate-level group courses.' - Arthur (Andy) Horne, Ph.D., Counseling and Human Development Services, University of Georgia, USA
