First published in 1984. This book was written in order to share
the authors' experience as family therapists not only with
professionals but with families. We live in an age of anxiety, fear
of violence and questioning of fundamental values. Confidence in
traditional values is being challenged. Waves of prejudice seem to
endanger our trust in one another and our loyalty to society. The
strength of family relations or their effect on individuals is
extremely difficult to measure. The authors of this book believe
that observable changes in the family do not necessarily alter the
member to- member impact of family relationships. Invisible loyalty
commitments to one's family follow paradoxical laws: The martyr who
doesn't let other family members work off their guilt is a far more
powerfully controlling force than the loud, demanding bully. The
manifestly rebellious or delinquent child may actually be the most
loyal member of a family.
