Great Book for All in Relationships! murray sellers This is a TERRIFIC book--not only for alcoholics/addicts and their partners, friends and family, but also for anybody who is in a relationship--and that certainly includes a lot of people! It has such good advice and is interesting as well as informative. I e-mailed the information about it to a number of my friends and family members who might know of people who would. "Amazing" according to Tonya W. Phillips. This is a really life changing book! It made my outlook on relationships change forever. Thanks Joey! Your the best!JMP.
