This book delves into the fascinating world of small group dynamics, offering a groundbreaking method for observing and analyzing how individuals interact within these intimate settings.

Excerpt from Interaction Process Analysis: A Method for the Study of Small Groups

There is no attempt at this point to present a fully developed and tested version of the method. It might be argued, of course, that the method is too undeveloped to justify the dignity of a special name and publication now. There is a growing demand, however, from persons who need such a method in their research or who are already contributing to its development from starting points of their own.
