More About This Book

Overview

Next to the death of a loved one, the ending of a relationship is the most painful experience most people will ever go through. Coming Apart is a first-aid kit for getting through the ending. It is a tool that will enable you to live through the end of your relationship with your self-esteem intact.

Daphne Rose Kingma, the undisputed expert on matters of the heart, explores the critical facets of relationship breakdowns:

  • Love myths: why we are really in relationships
  • The life span of love
  • The emotional and unconscious processes of parting
  • How to get through the ending
  • How to create a personal workbook for finding resolution

Originally published in 1987, and continuously in print since then, with more than half a million copies sold, Coming Apart has been an important resource for hundreds of thousands of readers experiencing the pain and stress of a break-up. For anyone going through the ending of a relationship Kingma is a caring, sensitive guide.

This re-packaged edition includes a new introduction by the author.

Most people who have been in love have been on the outs as well. The end of an affair is a trauma that few books address. Here, marriage and family therapist Kingma explains why it happens and how to survive it.
