The Unexpected Legacy of Divorce by Judith S Wallerstein

The Unexpected Legacy of Divorce by Judith S Wallerstein

Finally in paperback, the New York Times bestseller that has fundamentally changed the way children of divorce see themselves as adults has returned with an updated preface by the author. In this compelling book, Wallerstein sensitively illustrates the longterm effects that children of divorce experience when embarking on romantic relationships of their own. Combining research and analysis with advice to real people, she checks in on adults she first encountered as children 25 years ago and evaluates their experiences.
