Essential Skills in Family Therapy, Second Edition
Not bad, I like the break down of the book, seeming to touch on every aspect of how a couselor interacts with clients and applies it to Family therapy. Although I am now in my 3rd semester of grad school and there are chapters I have dealt with in other classes (such as the chapter on Assessment), it is still a nice overview.
