(...) There are no quick fixes and "you just need to do", nor no guilt and shame in the nooks and crannies. On the contrary, the book gives a strong hand in the back and a number of concrete and manageable steps to take - all towards a good enough cooperation.Psychologist Heidi Agerkvist; "SPLITTING UP witout falling to pieces" was a great help for me to read during the tough periods of my divorce."Reader commentReally well written and easily read book on a difficult subject.Inger Nygaard Kaad, reviewer
