From the Preface - "One thing that tends to get lost in academic discussions of family therapy is the feeling of accomplishment that comes from sitting down with an unhappy family and being able to help them. Beginning therapists are understandably anxious and not sure they’ll know how to proceed. (“How do you get all of themto come in?”) Veterans often speak in abstractions.

Treating troubled families has given me the greatest satisfaction imaginable, and I hope that the same is or will be true for you." - Michael P. Nichols
