Notas del editor
- Narrative- A holistic approaches (others include transpersonal, constructivist, feminist) - emphasized emotions and sensations; co-construction of real, imagined, or possible stories of past, present or future
- In the 1970’s Michel Foucault a prominent French intellectual who greatly influenced a number of fields and professions and Gregory Bateson a British anthropologist, and social scientist began developing the idea of narrative therapy within the field of family therapy. Their ideas greatly influenced White and Epston. In the late 70’s Michael White a social worker and family therapist in Australia along with David Epston began to formulate writing and expand on Batson and Foucault’s theory. In 1990 they co-authored “Narrative Means to Therapeutic Ends.”
