5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent layout of complex exploitive relationships, 27 April 1998

By A Customer

As we've come to expect from his previous cutting edge books, Dr Carnes integrates a good blend of theory and practicality in his writing. In The Betrayal Bond the author first establishes the basis for seeing how and when relationships become and stay exploitive, and what is required to break the cycle of abuse toward healing. A REFRESHING ADVANTAGE of this book is that nearly half of it is dedicated to sequencing concrete steps for identifying problems and change on a path of awareness, action, recovery, and hope. This book, therefore, stands to be very helpful to the consultant and victim, the practioner and patient in charting a way of understanding, identifying specific goals, and marking progress toward achieving them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally able to make sense of dysfunctional 'love' relationships, 6 Jan 2008

By	Shopaholic, Workaholic, Chocaholic Love Addict (London UK) - See all my reviews

The title of this book put me off initially as I thought that it could not possibly have any relevance to my life or experiences. Of course I was wrong, the book is great, it is clear and has lots of true life scenarios. It is quite heavy going because of the complexity of exploitative relationships but it makes so much sense. I really am starting to see patterns and links within my romantic relationships and am starting to feel equipped to face new partnerships with knowledge, confidence and a sense of enlightenment. I would highly recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars The true reasons that people allow themselves to be abused!, 26 Dec 1997

By A Customer

Where was this book 25 years ago? Must be required reading for "every" school girl. This book has helped me understand and solve my problem which (so called) experts had no clue about. I am so greatful. Thankyou thankyou. I am going to read it again. As far as my abuse . . It's over and will "never" happen again. That's a fact! It was my husband (who has been an x for 25 years) and more recently (last 5-10 years) my 27 year old son - a booster shot. Sick bastards! I've taken away the stick and have limited contact with my son. I doubt if he'll ever be human but his venom and stench will not affect me.
