Recenzje

Narrative and Cultural Humility is an adventure story - and is any adventure more alluring than probing the depths of the human mind? In evocative, engaging prose, Josselson details the challenges of encountering the complexities of a widely different culture and inviting people to reflect on themselves. We can easily identify with her as she tries to find her way through the maze of interpersonal challenges. This highly readable exploration of teaching and practicing group therapy in the Chinese context will be illuminating to therapists in our own culture. We come away pondering the assumptions we make when we endeavor to know another person."-Irvin D. Yalom, author of Becoming Myself and A Matter of Death and Life
