HEART OF DIVORCE
Advice from a Judge
At last, a simple handbook written by Susan P. Baker, a woman judge, to help those trying to cope with divorce.
For over twenty years, Susan Baker witnessed the pain and unhappiness of the family law arena. She watched while people engaged in destructive behavior, litigation, spent their life savings, raised dysfunctional children, and generally led unhappy lives that revolved around the next court date. Additionally, the judge observed that there were many people who did not wish to engage the other party in battle but could not find a resource to assist them in concluding their relationship in a peaceable manner.
Judge Baker decided to write a simple handbook to assist those who are engaged in making such important life changes. In Heart of Divorce, the reader will find a self-help manual that covers everything from assisting the party in making the decision to separate, to how to take care of oneself during the transition, to how to have a nondestructive life after divorce regardless of whether there were children.
