"This book is one of the best books published for those with bipolar disorder. The content accurately describes the turmoil for the affected individual and those who love him/her. The book is primarily written for the spouse but is an invaluable read for brother, sister, mother, father, friend, co-worker."

"this book was very helpful, espeically in understanding how a bi-polar thinks (or rather doesn't).if your partner is a diagnosed BP and you're both willing to work the techniques in the book, I bet you'll have quite a bit of success coping. But I have enough work to do, thank you very much, my superiority complex keeps me quite busy."
