Cloud & Townsend (graduates from my school) present a good psychological evaluation of unsafe people, but give no answers to the person searching out how to deal with those people. I know who's unsafe...but now what?
As far as personal growth, this book is good. It gives Biblical advice on how to take the plank out of your own eye before you go poking around someone else's eye, looking for the speck.
In short, Good - but no great.
It is not a "feel-good" book however, but it is the most practical and insightful book om human realtionships that I have ever read. Applying the principles in the book brings on emotional and spiritual progress for sure, and without fail draws one closer to the heartbeat of God.
If only more authors could cut through to the heart of the matter like these guys have done in their books!
