New Symposium on Developments in the Use of Technology in Counselling and Psychotherapy, Edited by Stephen Goss and Kate Anthony, in the British Journal of Guidance and Counselling

[Stephen Goss]

This is to announce that this symposium (above) has now been published and is available online. It grew out of a special event organised by Derek Richards and his colleagues at Trinity College Dublin funded by the European Science Foundation that brought together a range of leading experts working at the cutting edge of the field. The event itself has had a lasting impact and included papers on a wide range of technologies and this special edition of the British Journal of Guidance and Counselling allows readers to access this work. It provides a sampling from developments in the field by practitioners, trainers, researchers and developers working directly with the topics described and offers insights into what can be acheived, the research and development processes involved and the use of the technologies described.

It can be seen at http://www.informaworld.com/smpp/title~db=all~content=g913327775 in outline, including full abstracts and references for all articles. Full papers can be ordered as PDF files and in other formats or the Journal subscribed to online too.
