Habad: The Hasidism of R. Shneur Zalman of Lyady

This text employs object relations theory with a focus upon three main goals. The first is to present the theories and techniques of object relations family therapy, a form of family therapy that incorporates systematic and psychodynamic features and that facilitates a high degree of autonomy and intimacy. The second goal is to provide a Rosetta stone for understanding how other existing approaches in family therapy work to bring about change. Finally, the book offers a theory that bridges the chasm that has developed between family therapy and individual psychodynamic therapy.
