Reviews

'Coaching is gradually but confidently moving into new areas of application. This book is an intelligent guide and an important resource for those who wish to enrich their understanding of relationship coaching. Clear and accessible, it is highly recommended for both coaches and potential clients.' - Dr Tatiana Bachkirova, Reader in Coaching Psychology, Faculty of Business, Oxford Brookes University, UK 'Today the schooling we get on relationship skills, such as friendship, marriage, and parenting, emerges from the hard knocks of life experience, a somewhat inefficient and often painful process. At long last, Ives and Cox have launched a comprehensive and well-grounded guide to relationship coaching. Now coaches can enter this field knowing they are standing on a robust intellectual and scientific foundation.' - Margaret Moore, CEO, Wellcoaches Corporation and Co-Director, Institute of Coaching, McLean Hospital, Harvard Medical School affiliate, USA. 'Much attention is paid in the therapeutic world to how damaged relationships might be repaired but less attention is paid to helping people adopt a more helpful approach to achieving a more satisfactory life-affirming outcome to their quest. This book rectifies that imbalance, providing a model that fosters human flourishing, supporting people in their pursuit of relationship fulfilment and success.' - Nick Turner, from the foreword
