Reviews

This book is a challenging, interesting, and stimulating read which shows how and what has been developed in the arena of Brazilian Psychodrama. -- British Journal of Psychodrama and Sociodrama Psychodrama is widely used in Brazil, where there are more practitioners and training schools than in any other country. This fascinating book presents an edited collection of papers drawn from the wealth of published and unpublished Brazilian psychodrama literature. This fascinating and important book will appeal predominantly to psychodrama practitioners. However, other psychotherapists or mental health workers may find some gems within the text that will enhance their practice. -- Mental Health Today This book is a challenging, interesting, and stimulating read which shows how and what has been developed in the arena of Brazilian Psychodrama. -- British Journal of Psychodrama and Sociodrama
