Having known the author for many years I was given the opportunity to proof read this book and it is so "on the button" to my own situation as to be uncanny. My alienation is comparable, and I suspect may well have many similarities with other alienations. The alienation process described as well as the characteristics of the alienator has so many reassuring parallels to my own experiences. The author has a complete understanding and explains alienation in simple, powerful terms. I now understand that however hard I tried to avoid this outcome; it could not have been any different. This was the way it always was going to be. After alienation happened, guilt, blame and isolation have been my driving emotions and this book gave me the confidence that I no longer need to feel that shame. This is a 'must read' book for any alienated person. - Steve Dyer

Understanding Parental Alienation is intended for parents who are living through a nightmare—the loss of their relationship with a child—which seems impossible to understand and extremely frustrating to turn around. This book, written by two leading experts in the field, provides a balance of theoretical background and practical hands-on information to guide both parents and practitioners through this devastating phenomenon. The authorsf many years of experience have shaped their understanding of the causes of parental alienation, the manifestations of this serious mental health condition, and interventions that are likely to be helpful in the short-term and the long-term. The book is written in a readable, engaging manner interspersed with interesting case vignettes. As well as introducing some new theoretical concepts, such as the transition bridge, and helping the reader to understand the unique dynamics of the child's rejection, perhaps the most original parts of the book focus on taking action to deal with the problem and strategies for healing. The authors provide practical advice on preparing for court including how to develop a chronology of events and how to prepare a written submission, even down to choosing a writing style that is most likely to be read by the judge. Specific guidance is also provided on how to help alienated children heal through reunification. Understanding Parental Alienation is a highly valuable resource for parents and a must-read book for every mental health professional, social worker or legal professional working with families in divorce.
