What readers are saying:
★★★★★ “Over the years I have talked about this with Fritz Perls, Abe Maslow, Marilyn Ferguson, Albert Ellis, Byron Katie and many many others. And now the voice of Betty Martin takes the conversation further, and in intriguing detail, in this great book!” – Brad Blanton, Ph.D. author of Radical Honesty
★★★★★ “This is one of the most brilliant books I’ve read in years. Yes, it’s a self-help book, but the conceptualization of the four quadrants is a significant contribution to philosophy. It has immediately revolutionized my understanding of the dimensions of person-to-person touch and, more largely, to human interaction. So the book is both practically helpful and mind-expanding if one pays attention to its implications.”
★★★★★ “What’s so unclear about giving and receiving that necessitates a book? Lots, it turns out. Martin and Dalzen are masters of their craft, laying out subtle intra- and inter- personal dynamics in clear simple language. The frameworks and clarity this book provided have already started to transform my relationships and day-to-day interactions with friends and colleagues. Highly recommended!”
