“You will never look at your family’s problems the same way again. David Code offers a game-changing combination of Bowen family systems theory, brain research, and studies on animal instincts, to help us understand why humans do what we do in families. I appreciate David’s gift for translating the Ivory Tower into practical solutions for the challenges we all face in marriage and parenting. You’ll be glad you read this book.”
