Additional information
by Susan Forward (Author)
El chantaje emocional es una poderosa forma de manipulación por medio de la cual las personas a nuestro alrededor amenazan con castigarnos si no hacemos lo que quieren que hagamos.
Los chantajistas emocionales saben cuánto los valoramos, y conocen lo que nos hace vulnerables y nuestros secretos más íntimos. Pueden ser nuestros padres o hermanos, nuestros jefes o compañeros de trabajo, nuestros amigos o amantes. Sin importar cuán importantes seamos para ellos, se valen de todo lo que saben de nosotros para conseguir lo que quieren: que siempre cedamos.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A practical guide to better communication that will break the blackmail cycle for good, by one of the nation's leading therapists, Susan Forward.
"Breathe a sigh of relief! Susan Forward helps you identify and correct an intensely destructive and confusing pattern of relating with those you love. I highly recommend this important book!"--Susan Jeffers, Ph.D., author of Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway
"If you really loved me..." "After all I've done for you..." "How can you be so selfish..." Do any of the above sound familiar? They're all examples of emotional blackmail, a powerful form of manipulation in which people close to us threaten to punish us for not doing what they want. Emotional blackmailers know how much we value our relationships with them. They know our vulnerabilities and our deepest secrets. They are our mothers, our partners, our bosses and coworkers, our friends and our lovers. And no matter how much they care about us, they use this intimate knowledge to give themselves the payoff they want: our compliance. Susan Forward knows what pushes our hot buttons. Just as John Gray illuminates the communications gap between the sexes in Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus, and Harriet Lerner describes an intricate dynamic in The Dance of Anger, so Susan Forward presents the anatomy of a relationship damaged by manipulation, and gives readers an arsenal of tools to fight back.
