More About This Book

Overview

With her trademark no-nonsense approach and building on the principles developed during her long career as a licensed therapist, New York Times bestselling author Dr. Laura shows readers how to survive enemies—traitors, backstabbers, and saboteurs—at work and at home.

In her previous New York Times bestsellers, author and renowned radio host Dr. Laura Schlessinger has helped countless men and women become better husbands, wives, parents, and people. She's helped them cope with grief; encouraged them to be moral, compassionate, and considerate individuals; shown them how to handle adversity; and set them on the path to understanding and living happy, well-adjusted lives.

Now, in this long-awaited book, Dr. Laura turns to an emotionally explosive subject that has touched all our lives: betrayal and the desire for revenge. And for the first time, she shares her own personal experiences with betrayal, humiliation, and pain, which have led her to a powerful desire for revenge. Intimate and honest, Dr. Laura connects with her readers as never before and puts this subject into context:

I concluded that betrayals are frightening, destructive, painful, humiliating, demoralizing, and so very, very hard to repair. Betrayals undermine people, relationships (marriages and families), institutions (churches, schools, businesses, government, politics)—everything. The entire fabric of humanity depends upon people depending upon each other for their word, honesty, and loyalty.

Millions of Dr. Laura's listeners struggle with the idea of taking revenge and how to accept when it cannot be achieved. For many who have been betrayed, justice may never be served, she reminds us. Empathetic yet never saccharine, direct yet never harsh, Dr. Laura encourages readers to explore their feelings and learn to get beyond them, supplying tools they can use to achieve fulfilling, contented lives free of rancor and the need to settle scores.

Powerful and thought-provoking, Surviving a Shark Attack (on Land) gives readers the emotional defenses they need to overcome the worst life will throw at them, whether it's a cheating spouse, a lying sibling, or a ruthless colleague.

    Quick, thorough advice--could not put it down!

    This book was such a reassurance to my insecurity from being stabbed in the back at a job a few years ago--boy, I wish this book would have been available in 2007!! Dr. Laura, as always, cuts right down to the chase with in-your face-honesty and common sense, something lacking in our society and especially media today. I enjoyed every minute of it, and the quotes were a wonderful way to reinforce what she was saying in each chapter. Anyone who reads this book not coming away with a clear answer of how to handle betrayal the right way just does not want to hear the truth.

    Clarification and answers

    Dr. Laura clarifies betrayal. I was hoping for a formula for revenge but in the end she restated what I already knew. The best revenge is living a good life.

    Excellent, sound advice. I've observed (and experienced) that being betrayed leads so many to being obsessively paralyzed by the situation which means that the betrayer continues to be in charge. The author offers both solutions and insight to getting past it, along with many examples, several of them personal to her. She's no Pollyanna - she explores the issue from all sides. Well done and well worth the read.

    Good for me...

    Short, easy read. Her personal agenda is obvious from the beginning and I could appreciate that since I could relate. She presents reality based insight, bottom line, this is how it is, information and ideas. But, if you are looking for an indepth, detached study of betrayal, this is not it.

    personal experience?

    from when I listened to her show over 10 years ago she may have been credible. Now she is a loon. She probably wrote this from a perceived reality. I'm glad she's gone. Please don't encourage her by buying this book!
