“The New Authority by Haim Omer offers a unique understanding of authority in modern society that helps parents and teachers fulfill their responsibilities, handle common difficult situations, and foster self-control and responsible autonomy in children. Clear sound principles, concise case examples, and network-building suggestions promote practical application of the book’s important thesis. A valuable resource for mental health and education professionals involved in working with children and parents.” – David Schnarch, author of Passionate Marriage and Intimacy & Desire
