Melody Beattie’s international bestseller Codependent
No More introduced the world to the term codependent. A phenomenon
of the self-help movement, this modern classic has sold millions
of copies and spent three years on the New York Times bestseller
list, making Beattie one of America's best-loved, inspirational
authors. Now, Beattie provides insights on radical societal changes
that have altered codependent behavior in THE NEW CODEPENDENCY.
In the book, she identifies a new generation whose codependency
manifests itself through continued taking and entitlement rather
than the inability to stop giving. Beattie provides a series of
tests to help the reader assess his or her codependent behavior,
guiding and reassuring them that they can take care of themselves,
no matter what they are going through. By following her guidelines,
readers will learn how to get back into their lives by choosing
behaviors that work for them.
Melody Beattie is an expert on codependency and a
household name in addiction and recovery circles and the author
of more than 15 books, including include Beyond Codependency,
The Language of Letting Go, and The Grief Club. She
lives in Southern California.
