Michael White (1948-2008), one of the founders of narrative therapy and co-director of the Dulwich Centre, an institute for narrative practice and community work in Adelaide, Australia, made significant contributions to psychotherapy and family therapy. He is the author of Maps of Narrative Practice and co-author of Narrative Means to Therapeutic Ends.
"[F]lows with wisdom and clarity from beginning to end...Each
chapter is full of gold nuggets and refreshing admonitions to
clinicians. White's humor, wisdom and heartfelt exhortations for
professional clarity and judgment shine through.... Clinicians from
every paradigm will learn, feel challenged and gain insight for
Narrative Practice: Continuing the Conversations." -- The
National Psychologist
"[White] completely rearranged the theoretical and practice
boundaries of family therapy.... The world has lost a gorgeous
theoretical thinker and therapist. It's now up to each and every
one of us within narrative therapy circles and beyond to carry his
ideas forward." -- Stephen Madigan, PhD, Yaletown Family
Therapy
"Hearing Michael 'speak again' through these pages was a real
thrill! David Denborough, Cheryl, and David Epston have fulfilled a
major 'labor of love' in drawing out some marvelous gems from
Michael's unpublished works. Through their efforts, Michael extends
his contributions to narrative theory and practice.... An
enlivening read!" -- Karl Tomm, MD, Professor of Psychiatry,
Faculty of Medicine at the University of Calgary
