Customer Reviews

a good one

This is one of the first books to buy if you are considering -- or are currently immersed -- in a divorce. It spells out the legal and emotional steps of the divorce process with great clarity.

A How-to With Heart

This book covers, in extensive and absorbing detail, all the bases about how to survive court dates, adversarial meetings with attorneys, and other practical considerations in the divorce process. But its real essence is in how to survive divorce with your mind, heart and soul--and those of your children--intact. During a high-conflict divorce proceeding it's easy to let yourself fall prey to a "Don't get mad, get even" state of mind; the author keeps bringing his readers back to how destructive this is for the litigants and, especially, for their kids. Keep the children's welfare at the forefront, and don't sacrifice your integrity for the sake of getting revenge on your soon-to-be-ex. This is a touching and very, very useful guide to getting through a terrible time in your life, and coming out the other side, without destroying your soul in the process.

An Essential Read

If you are looking for a clear and concise book that cuts right to the heart of the matter, this is it. For anyone looking for answers to tough questions on a difficult subject, pick up this book. I recommend this book to anyone in or around a divorce.

An Ethical Divorce

I found this book to be a thoughtful, reflective, highly ethical approach to divorce. This is a book that is clear and effective in assisting families in prioritizing the what and how of divorce while still maintaining integrity and personal dignity. The emphasis given on protecting children is a breath of fresh air. I feel that anyone even remotely contemplating divorce must read this book.

At Last: A Way to Help Loved Ones Survive a Divorce

How can you help friends through the trama of divorce, especially when you love both of them, and do not want to "take sides?" How can you make it easier on their children? I gave this book to each of my good friends when they were in the midst of ending their 10 year marriage. Both have thanked me many times over. The advice in the book is practical, sane, clearly presented, and obviously culled from the writers first hand experience. Most importantly, it helped. I cannot recommend the book highly enough.
