The authors describe the work they are doing with individual
clients in Milan. Locating themselves clearly within the tradition
of the Milan approach and more recent social constructionist and
narrative influences, and articulating continually a broad systemic
framework emphasizing meaning problems in context and relationship,
they introduce a range of ideas taken from psychoanalysis,
strategic therapy, Gestalt therapy and narrative work. They
describe the therapy as Brief/Long-term therapy and introduce new
interviewing techniques, such as connecting the past, present and
future in a way that releases clients and helps them construct new
narratives for the future; inviting the patient to speak to the
therapist as an absent family member; and working with the client
to monitor their own therapy. The book is written with a freshness
that suggests the authors are describing "work in progress", and
the reader is privy to the authors' own thoughts and reactions as
they comment on the process of their therapy cases. This is a
demystifying book, for it allows the reader to understand why one
particular technique was preferred over another.
