Family Games: General Models of Psychotic Processes in the Family Hardcover - 1988

by Mara Selvini Palazzoli


From the publisher

To this end, Mara Selvini Palazzoli conducted family therapy sessions in a highly original context, characterized by the unusual length of time devoted to the sittings (half a day); by the presence of a team of therapists drawn from the different working backgrounds and orientations; by direct observation, made possible by the use of a one-way mirror; and by a systematic investigation of the effects of the therapies based on written transcriptions of all the sessions, in addition to audio and visual recordings.

From the rear cover

'Game' is not meant to imply either competition or entertainment. Rather, as the authors write, 'Game, to us, is a metaphor and as such will forever remain intuitive and elusive. We have quite another purpose in mind, namely to come ever closer to defining exactly the processes that lead to a subject's psychotic behavior. To this end we are attempting to devise models of the psychotic processes that develop in a family.'
