'This book is unusual in this field for its ability to illuminate the learning process from the perspective of both the teacher and the learner. All the contributors have been very open and candid about their experiences, revealing aspects of their learning which are not usually discussed, yet have the effect of empowering the reader to take more personal risks in their own learning.'Learning Consultation is about the process of slowly building new skills on top of old ones. It starts with basic premises and techniques of systemic consultation and moves forward through time as these become the underpinning for the practice of consultation. This will be invaluable to the many practitioners being asked to do more and more consultation work.'- Ros Draper'This book provides a consultation to any reader interested in engaging in the process of a role shift to systemic consultancy. It carefully presents the theoretical ideas and skills as they are needed within a rich tapestry of case examples. It is presented in the form of a co-evolutionary narrative of the teaching/learning process which closely mirrors the consultation process itself. Highly recommended.'- Clare Huffington
