About this title

From the Author

News events trigger issues of infidelity.
When news events of infidelity grab our attention on an almost daily, non-stop manner, as it has recently, they bring personal issues of unfaithfulness to mind. If these issues have not been resolved, that is, understood and the causes worked out, they linger. And even though they may have been pushed out of one's thoughts, they often re-surface through the daily reminders that are seen at every turn on tv, radio, newspaper, supermarket checkout stands. Comparisons may come to mind about the other woman, the wife, the unfaithful partner, and the effect on the family. What to do about this is important. Sweeping it under the rug doesn't help, because it is still there. We wrote Surviving Infidelity to help people understand the types of affairs, the causes, and the resolutions. The Second Edition updates the first with information about the effect and nature of lies and deceit, Cyberspace affairs, affairs that capture the media's attention, and other information that Dr. Harris and I wanted to add to help you survive infidelity. All good wishes. Rona Subotnik.
