Review:I recently had the opportunity to a get a signed copy Bruce Schneier's Liars and Outliers from a Special Offer on his blog.

Review:The authors used two decades of research on attachment theory to explain, in clear and simple terms, how to identify an appropriate match and how to constructively work through conflict. A compelling book. Read more
Review:Those who read the Getting Past Your Past ("GPYP") blog regularly and have read the Getting Past Your Breakup: How to Turn a Devastating Loss into the Best Thing That Ever Happened to You book know that I believe in the skillful fusing of various techniques and schools of psychological thought.
