Down Under and Up Over: Travels with Narrative Therapy

Synopsis:

This new book is in two parts. Part one - Down Under - contains previously published work from various stages of the author's career, edited with some alterations so as to form a coherent whole. Part two - Up Over - comprises of six varied and creative examples of Epston's current work, all of which are published for the first time in this volume.

Description:

As always, the chapters in Part One (Down Under) reflect Epston’s creativity, and at times those of his co-writers.

Part Two (Up Over) includes inventive pieces on: approaches to chronic bed-wetting; relationships between children and their estranged fathers; court reports; stealing; sibling conflicts; as well as a long chapter on Anti-Anorexia, a subject close to David’s heart.

About the Author:
David Epston continues to be a considerable influence on many UK family therapists/systemic psychotherapists, as well as being one of the two creators of Narrative Therapy, the other being the late Michael White.
