Lifer:

It is a deep and complex read, no regular 'self-help' book. It is phenomenal, but you really have to hang with it and go slowly. It was originally written for a professional audience of his peers, and then taken to the public, with all the psych lingo and terminology watered-down for a general audience. It certainly is not written in Michele's friendly, talkative tone, but that doesn't mean it isn't a good read.

My best advice to you if/when you read this, is not to see your partner in it all over the place, but to see yourself, kwis?

In any event, it is an excellent, excellent book, one worth reading, if you can hang with it and absorb it, bit by bit.
