Jerome D. Levin, Ph.D., is a faculty member of the Humanities Department at the New School for Social Research as well as Director of the New School's Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Counselor Training Program. He is also Adjunct Associate Professor of Social Science at New York University.
Jerome Levin is impressive for his breadth of knowledge and his clarity of expression. This book is at once up-to-the-minute and respectful to the legacy of psychotherapy. It will serve well as a text for beginners, yet it contains enough nuggets of special insight to allow it to sit comfortably on the shelf of experienced practitioners.
— Peter D. Kramer, M.D.
Blending erudition, clinical intuition, and common sense, Dr. Levin presents an original formulation of family therapy theory and technique specifically tailored to deal with the unique problems of the addicted family. This is an achievement of the first order, a gift to a field in need of new approaches.
