Product Description

Product Description
This work examines the family's mysterious power to affect our lives. The book explains how secrets are created, how they influence us, and the risks and benefits of exploring them. With the aid of a genogram, the book provides us with a step-by-step guide to uncovering the secrets of the past and present. There are many case studies which illustrate how we can recognize crucial gaps and silences, reconstruct missing information and decipher partial memories. The book provides advice on how to deal with the truths revealed and shows us ways to stay safely and honestly connected with our families.

4.0 out of 5 stars Startling!, 21 May 2004
By A Customer
Admittedly a huge fan of Mr Bradshaw, I found this book paved the way for a huge step forward in my own development. Doing the exercises was pretty uncomfortable (who really wants to open the family's skeleton cupboard?) but - as often happens - my family mysteriously started offering fresh insights, without any prompting from me! Our instincts generally tell us if family holds the key to missed cues in our own behaviour. For anyone who feels ready to investigate, I recommend this book most enthusiastically .

4.0 out of 5 stars Family Secrets: What You Don't Know Can Hurt You, 27 Feb 2007
By Steve C "Steve C" (London, Engalnd) - See all my reviews
I'm a professional counsellor and frequently recommend this title to clients. And interestingly, my counselling colleagues often borrow it and it can take a while to get it back!
A readable summary of Family Systems Theory and John Bradshaw's own invaluable personal history all make the first half of the book alone hugely valuable for anyone that has a family or comes from one...
The help in constructing your own genogram will be useful to many but not necessarily all.
A good book to read after or before this by the same author is [...].
