Learning from experience is the theme of this thought-provoking and
challenging volume edited by Laurence J. Gould, Lionel F. Stapley
and Mark Stein. They have produced an authoritative sourcebook on
this major strand of Group Relations Theory, which was developed
jointly from psychoanalytic and open systems theories, including
those of Bion, Klein and Freud. The papers in this book address the
broad issues of authority, leadership and organizational culture,
whilst concentrating on other issues in-depth, such as inter-group
conflict, and gender and race relations in the workplace. These
papers ably demonstrate how learning from experience can be applied
to working with a wide spectrum of managerial, educational,
community, group and organizational concerns ranging from the
individual to large systems."This book will be required reading for
all who are interested in the theory and practice of working with
groups and organizations, as well as those who have a serious
interest in the area of experiential education and group relations
training: Masters of Business Management (MBA) and other management
students, managers, consultants, personnel and training
professionals, researchers in group and organizational behaviour,
and educationalists." -- Lionel F. Stapley from the
