"Deborah Graham, Alison Anderson and Stella Kavoukian have written an incredibly helpful book. Unlike other books on divorce, they start not with answers, or a flood of abstract general information, but instead with questions, and good ones, difficult and important ones that each of us needs to answer. If it is possible for a guide to divorce to be friendly, this book does it, without skimping on the details or offering platitudes instead of sound advice. The authors' separate areas of expertise track the questions we most seek answers to, and their breadth of experience and accumulated wisdom shine through.
