Citing seven years of continuous group therapy in a veterans' hospital, the author stresses the ways in which members of a group help their fellows, showing diagnostic acuity and therapeutic tact. The improvement each experiences appears only after some libidinal investment and after multiple identifications with other members. Indications are given for determining when the group leader should relinquish some of his authority.
