"This educative, wide-ranging and informative book argues that
participation in social groups improves mental health and well
being. While neuropsychologists may be most interested in the four
chapters that are directly concerned with neurologically impaired
people, the remaining chapters will inform them of the benefits of
groups in other areas such as survivors of disasters, rape victims
and concentration camp survivors." - Barbara Wilson, The Oliver
Zangwill Centre for Neuropsychological Rehabilitation, Ely, UK"This
volume does an excellent job at integrating different perspectives
on the complex relationship between identity and health. It
assesses the risks and resources associated with social identities
and outlines concrete interventions that take advantage of these
insights. It is an invaluable resource for all those interested in
health issues in psychology." - Naomi Ellemers, Professor of Social
Psychology of Organisations, Leiden University, The Netherlands
