Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Uk Paperback Edition. Paperback. Slight shelf wear to edges of cover. Couple of slight creases to corner cover. Families have always suffered from the same problems but today there exist many new ones created in the main by changing lifestyles, an obsession with psychotheraoy, the growth of the media's influence and the recent avalanche of technology. Now beleaguered families are blaming themselves for what is essentially a cultural problem. But only when you recognise the source of the problem can you begin to solve it. In this book, the author offers help, revealing how parents can protect their families from what is dangerous, and how they can reconnect with the healing strength that is within each family.
