Genograms assessment and intervention
- "Widly used by both family therapists and family physicians, the genogram is a graphic way of organizing the mass of information gathered during a family assessment and finding patterns in the family system. This ... text ... provides a standard method for constructing a genogram, doing a genogram interview, and interpreting the results. The text comes to life for the reader through the use of genograms of famous families - those of Sigmund Freud, Woody Allen and Mia Farrow, the Kennedys, Jane Fonda and Ted Turner, Bill Clinton, Princess Diana, the Roosevelts, and Thomas Jefferson - to name a few. Once the principles of family systems theory and systemic interviewing have been thoroughly explained and illustrated by genograms, the authors go on to present clinical applications in both family therapy and family medicine and to explore new frontiers of research, particularly the use of computer-generated genograms. The new edition highlights new developments, particularly those that take into account race, culture, and the diversity of American families, and includes many new cases. [The book] is an ideal way to introduce all those involved in family treatment - family therapists, physicians, nurses, social workers, pastoral counselors, and trainees in these fields - to this essential assessment and intervention tool. -Back cover."
