Prendiville and Parson have assembled a group of experts to give the reader a deeper understanding of these powers through a comprehensive text which includes relevant clinical cases to bridge abstract theory with actual therapeutic interventions. This text is ideal for play therapists around the world as it enlightens all about the developmental stages linking play and the achievement of physical, emotional and social identity. This book will enhance the library of all child and adolescent psychotherapists.
