The Mother And The Manager explores the cultural roots of codependent behavior patterns formed because of unequal status in relationships. Although it focuses primarily on how our traditional male and female roles can create these patterns, it also explores how this dynamic can create unhealthy relationships between any two people, regardless of their gender. In its final chapters, The Mother And The Manager proposes positive and workable solutions for creating healthier relationships based on equality and cooperation.

Elizabeth Ralston has been involved in 12-step recovery for over twenty-five years. She became interested about the connection between our culture's messages and codependent behavior after keeping a personal journal in the early years of her recovery. She became intrigued by the notion that codependency could be created, in large part, by our culture's expectations. She has an advanced degree in psychology and a background in sociology which has facilitated her research for this book. She wrote Th e Mother and the Manager to explore how our society's traditional roles could contribute to codependent behavior not only between men and women but also between any two individuals involved in a variety of relationships.
