About this Item

Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

About this title

Synopsis

This textbook teaches all those who interview adults for professional purposes how do "dig deeper," by probing the respondents adult-developmental level, or meaning making. Knowledge about respondents' level of meaning making allows for effectiveness in interventions with clients, and also heightens the benefit for the client whose self awareness is boosted. The techniques presented derive from research in adult development over the lifespan at the Kohlberg School at Harvard. The book contains 9 chapters, letting you steadily accumulate knowledge to the point where you can try your own developmental interview. It contains an Appendix with exercises, case studies of individuals and teams, and an introduction to assessing large groups developmentally through Capability Metrics.
