Editorial Reviews

"Cloe Madanes has ventured into the complex arena of working with families where there is violence and sexual abuse. She has developed with elegant simplicity a set of guidelines for helping these families heal. Her work embraces the spiritual dimension that must be a part of the healing process in these families."

Carrell A. Dammann

The latest book by family therapist Madanes posits a constant struggle between love and violence in the family, especially in sexual relations, and presents advice on how to change the latter to the former, with clinical examples of the transformation process.
