About this audiobook

"If you have a troubled marriage, a troubled child, a troubled self, if you're in therapy or think that there's no help for your predicament, The Family Crucible will give you insights . . . that are remarkably fresh and helpful." —New York Times Book Review



The classic groundbreaking book on family therapy by acclaimed experts Augustus Y. Napier, PhD, and Carl Whitaker, MD.

You will discover the general patterns that are common to all families—stress, polarization and escalation, scapegoating, triangulation, blaming, and the diffusion of identity—and you will gain a vivid understanding of the intriguing field of family therapy.
