The 13 chapters here are wide-ranging; they include a contribution on work with people with learning difficulties and work with older people, areas of adult abuse that have been compartmentalised and set aside from mainstream interests. Other marginalised groups or individuals are also included such as drug users and male victims, survivors of domestic violence and those who self-injure. Each chapter is followed by a helpful reading list or references. Students may well find these chapters very instructive and compelling... This text looks set to appeal to a variety of readers from who may seek out individual chapters to practicing counsellors who may wish to see well-organised text with up to date material that is concisely written without being superficial.
