Review:
Inside Out and Outside In is a rare and stellar example of how to make an outstanding textbook even better. This exceptional classic work has been updated for the DSM-5, is inclusive of a wide range of diagnostic categories, provides rich examples representing all aspects of diversity, and showcases the application of contemporary psychodynamic theories at their finest. (Carole Tosone, New York University Silver School of Social Work; editor-in-chief of Clinical Social Work Journal)
In this era in which clinical training is experiencing such significant pressure, this is an indispensable, accessible book, connecting contemporary generations of social workers to key aspects of our theoretical and conceptual legacy and knowledge base, while underscoring and honoring our profession’s historical focus on social justice and intersectionality. (Caroline Rosenthal Gelman, Silberman School of Social Work at Hunter College, City University of New York)
This volume’s continuing attention to our inside lives, ‘outside’ lives, and the interplay of the two is enhanced by its ever-increasing attention to multiple dimensions of diversity. Written for helping professionals, it is the best and most accessible resource I know of for learning about the major lines of psychodynamic thinking from its origins to the present, with case examples from practice throughout. (Jeane W. Anastas, Silver School of Social Work, New York University; past president of the National Association of Social Workers)
Comprehensive in its breadth of clinical theories, with meaningful critique and application of the cross-cultural dimension, this work is invaluable to clinical training and education. It is not only useful for the beginning clinician, but an important reference for the more seasoned professional. (Mario L. Starc, The Sanville Institute for Clinical Social Work and Psychotherapy)
