- The best book I've read on this topic!
This book is the absolute best book I have read on this subject. It is clear and has many "for instances". It has made my life easier to handle and made my situation not feel quite so isolated. I have and will continue to recommend this book.
Rating: - even if you don't think you are in an abusive relationship...
This should be a must read for all young people. This book was recommended to me by my abuse counseling facilitator. I was in an abusive relationship (emotional, psychological,physical) and it was so manipulative, I was really believing that his physical abuse was a direct result of my behavior (and by the way, i never criticized him about anything nor cheated on him ...[i know. the fact that i even feel that I need to put in that caveat shows that I'm still struggling...]). In fact, he had me convinced ... Read More
Rating: - Excellent resource for understanding the dynamics of emotional abuse
This is an _excellent_ book for any woman who has been with or is with an angry and controlling man who is emotionally abusive. It helps a woman to realize that she's not crazy and that she is so much better off without this damaged and damaging presence in her life. Lundy Bancroft's detailed analysis of the realities of what's going on in the minds of these men is right on the mark and helps anyone who has been lost and hurting gain the kind of power that can only come with this knowledge.
Highly ... Read More
Rating: - Eye opening book...
I would recommend this book to anyone that is facing the abuse that Mr. Bancroft writes about.
Rating: - Astonishingly insightful
I am a lawyer and have worked in the criminal justice system ever since graduating from law school. I have defended men who were charged in domestic violence related offenses. I was always under the misguided perception that domestic violence was about someone being physically harmed by an intimate partner. I was so misguided that when I, myself, became involved with someone who was controlling, evil, and abusive, I did not recognize it for what it was. This book opened my eyes. It validated my feelings ... Read More
