Synopsis

When working with children, an understanding of the social interactions and relationships which influence emotional growth and learning is essential. Emotional Growth and Learning clarifies these processes and serves as a practical and theoretical resource for the training of teachers and other professionals. Paul Greenalgh draws on case studies from his own experience to illustrate the relevant concepts of Jungian, psychoanalytic and humanistic psychology. Individual and group exercises help adults to explore their own participation in the growth and learning processes and the book's multi-disciplinary approach and accessible style will appeal to teachers, parents and those working in clinical psychology, counselling and social work.

Review:

'I know of no other single work addressed mainly to teachers which explores ways of working with the processes that can enable children to manage their feelings and develop the capacity to think and learn.' - Therapeutic Communities

'Emotional Growth and Learning is rich in definitions of psychotherapeutic techniques and ways of thinking. These definitions are very user-friendly. Overall, this is a very useful reference book for various professionals that will be referred to in various capacities.' - Journal of Intellectual Disability Research
