Where is group treatment going in the 21st century?

The author contends that group psychotherapy can be a dynamic force for social change. He shows how group psychotherapists have developed tool that reach far beyond the limits of that particular profession; they deal with the basic interaction among all peoples everywhere in all societies. These tools can be demonstrated taught, and experienced. In as much as they can be learned group therapists have to start teaching them to people at the earliest level of cognitive development. That means that it has to start in our school systems as part of the educational process. A particular kind of specialist has to be trained who can function within the system itself and yet think psychodynamically. The author maintains that this can be accomplished.
