Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Stories shape our memories, our lives and the interactions in our families. Since one cannot talk about problems without telling stories, they are central to therapy. This book encourages therapists to become more intentional in using narrative by providing a coherent conceptual frame. It also describes a range of techniques for working with stories, and demonstrates how to work at the interface between the story life of individuals, couples, families and the stories of the community at large.
