Het boek introduceert het Constructivistisch Onderzoeksontwerp als een raamwerk voor onderzoek dat creatief, transformerend en innovatief is. Het kan worden gebruikt door elke professional en onderzoeker die creatieve onderzoeksmethoden wil ontwikkelen en sociale verandering wil bevorderen.

本書收錄的 13 篇文章，作者雖然來自不同文化及國家，其書寫位置和案例討論各異，但席拉．邁可納米和肯尼斯．格根二位學養深厚的編輯者以「社會建構」取向作為各篇章共享的脈絡，使各篇章的反思實踐回應了實證取向心理治療危機，並作為解除標準化治療程序的策略，呈現了重視語言、經驗和社會脈絡的心理治療。「社會建構」的反思，使得心理治療既有的概念疆域得以不斷消解、重建。作者們挑戰傳統的知識框架，帶領我們看到關係裡的自身處境――看見一己寓居其中的語言體系如何引導和限制我們的現實，思索文化中的故事如何影響人們對日常生活的解釋。然而個案和治療師可以成為一起探索的合作夥伴，聯合致力於創造更令人滿意的新故事；我們不只是被鑲嵌在關係裡，更是我們自己的作者。讀者透過此書各篇章所提供的思考能量與行動資源，或許也能鬆動解消固化的疆域，繼而開顯自身的可能性，走上重塑自我多樣性的實踐之路。《翻轉與重建：心理治療與社會建構》出版之時，社會建構論在心理諮商領域才剛萌芽；然而本書中譯本的問世，仍能接引台灣當代臨床治療的人文渴望，促成異地轉化的在地實踐。本書特色...

Further, most are written in ways that speak to those in the acade...

This book honors the life and work of the late W. Barnett Pearce, a leading theorist in the communication field. The book is divided into four sections. The first section will lead with an essay by Barnett Pearce. This will be followed by sections on (1) practical theory, (2) dialogue, and (3) social transformation. In the broadest sense, these are probably the three general themes found in the work of Pearce and his colleagues. In another sense, these categories also identify three import...

This is the first therapy book that focuses on clinical work with youth who construct queer identities (as differentiated from essentialized gay or lesbian identities). It's also the first practice-based book that draws on queer theory, constructionist philosophy, and cultural studies to inform and guide therapeutic work with queer youth. As such, it offers fresh, critical, and hopeful resources for therapists committed to culturally responsive work with youth. It also helps to make ideas ...
