 Social
Construction: Entering the Dialogue (2004)
by Kenneth J. Gergen and Mary Gergen
Ken and Mary Gergen present an account of social
constructionist thought that will enable students,
colleagues and practitioners - as well as those
who are simply curious - to gain a basic understanding
and appreciation of the drama and constructionist
ideas in action - in organizations, psychotherapy,
education, conflict resolution, social research,
and everyday life. This book outlines in an easy
to read format, the underlying theory for the
Taos Institute's work and mission in the world.

Comments:
"This is the most beautiful and thought provoking
book I have yet to come across in my rather not so long
and not so wide scholarly world."
--Temi M. Multia, Nairobi, Kenya
"I am so appreciative that you've presented the over-arching
theory in such a succinct and accessible manner. We're
finding it relevant to dealing with the religion/science
divisiveness within my family...and can also see what
a powerful tool (social constructionism) can be, benefiting
everyone from one-to-one relationships to international
wheeling and dealings."
--Deborah Curtis
"Interesting, thought provoking, and a little
unnerving...Its ramifications are huge."
--Andrew Voudouris, Penn State undergraduate
