Ground-breaking book that takes an innovative look at divorce. His divorce experience is separated from hers with clear, illuminating explanations of just how women unwittingly improve their psychological health after coping with divorce. Full of personal interviews & fascinating research, "The Silver Lining" tells the reader precisely why women accomplish this improved health, looking at some of the important differences in losses, activities & coping.

And finally, losses he will never have: the subtle consequences of his domination, freeing her to take charge of a new life. "I give this book to my women clients.
