This book explores some of the basic principles of a wide range of relationship topics from boundaries, to sex, to differentiation, assertive communication, and conflict. We often are not taught these rules of the game of life when we are growing up and so have to learn them the hard way: by trial and painful error. This book won't explain how to manipulate people to make lots of money. Nor how to charm everyone to your point of view. Rather it is about learning to relate more openly and effectively--to lead a good life that brings fulfilment and joy.
Industry Reviews
“Having lived in a shared household as part of an intentional community for over thirty years, I wish I had read this book at the beginning of that journey. Alexander gets to the heart of how relationships work and does so in a way that empowers us to love one another well for the long haul. I will refer this book to other community dwellers!”
—Tim Dickau, author of Plunging into the Kingdom Way

“Genuine relationships take us on a colorful journey characterized by both wonderful encouragements and heart-stopping challenges, peace and safety as well as fear and insecurity, the full spectrum of human emotions. . . . Dr. Irene Alexander has provided for us an insightful, measured, and practical guide to the many qualities and characteristics of human relationships. Her range of inquiry is broad, but the cohesive thread of ‘knowing oneself’ is skillfully woven throughout.”
—Denis O’Hara, Professor of Counseling, Australian College of Applied Psychology
