Reviews and Endorsements
‘Within a few short years of the founding of the Israeli Institute of Group Analysis (IIGA), its members have taken leading roles in the profession of group analysis. We have all benefited from their efforts, as will the many readers of this book.’
––Earl Hopper, editor of the New International Library of Group Analysis Series
‘This is a marvellous book. From its very inception, the IIGA has been forged in the struggle to coexist with hostile neighbours, and to maintain the civilising process.’
—Malcolm Pines, founder member of the Institute of Group Analysis (IGA)
‘In addition to in-depth information about many theoretical and therapeutic topics, this book sheds a light on the history of Israel and its current issues, and is a very important contribution to group analysis.’
—Vamik D. Volkan, Emeritus Professor of Psychiatry
‘The tears, triumphs and extraordinary resilience of Israeli society are represented in the work of the IIGA and deserve the highest regard.’
— John Schlapobersky, training analyst, supervisor and teacher at the IGA, London
‘This wonderful volume captures the vibrant creativity, multiplicity and clinical acumen of the IIGA. Locating group analysis in the socio-political-historical context of Israel, it will enrich group analysis and psychoanalysis.’
— Robert Grossmark, supervisor at the New York University Postdoctoral Program in Psychoanalysis
‘This is a cogent and creative extension of group analysis according to Foulkes, in which relatedness exists within an all-embracing group matrix.’
— Dieter Nitzgen, training group analyst at the IGA, Heidelberg, and editor of Group Analysis
