This thoroughly-researched book offers valuable practical guidance on the pervasive problem of parental alienation. It deserves a place in the library of every family practitioner and judge.

Sir Reg Weir, formerly Presiding Judge (Family Division) of the High Court of Northern Ireland.

This important book shines a light on parental alienation and its devastating impact on families. The author, a knowledgeable and skilled clinician, demystifies the concept providing insight and guidance on interventions that will facilitate remediation and resolution. This is a 'must read' for all those involved in the process, both personally and professionally.

A comprehensive, valuable resource informed by up-to-date scientific evidence and wisdom borne of professional experience. The book's outstanding breadth and depth of knowledge makes it an excellent guide for both the novice and experienced professional who deal with parental alienation issues.
