 Wonderful Overview ( namaste_consulting )
I asked my professor for an updated book that gave a large overview of the field of family therapy. Well laid out and shows a variety of different paradigms -- their optimal and nonoptimal techniques, lens, etc.

Useful Book
I purchased this book for a graduate level course in family therapy. I found it very helpful in explaining the important theories of family therapy. It also highlights therapeutic techniques and provides vignettes of how the theory might apply in a real life situation. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants a basic theoretical background in family therapy.
