Heroic Client - Duncan, Barry L. (Professor Nova Southeastern University in Florida) a Miller, Scott D. (Chicago, Illinois) a Sparks, Jacqueline A.

Written by psychologists, who are also cofounders of the Institute for the Study of Therapeutic Change, this book challenges the traditional focus on diagnosis, "silver bullet" techniques, and magic pills, exposing them as empirically bankrupt practices that only diminish the role of clients and hasten therapy's extinction.
