THEORY AND TREATMENT PLANNING IN FAMILY THERAPY: A COMPETENCY-BASED APPROACH also includes extensive discussions about how diversity issues and research inform contemporary practice of family therapy. The author uses a down-to-earth style to explain concepts in clear and practical language that contemporary students appreciate.
