What they're saying about this book:

New Zealand Relationship Services

Liz Kinley, General Manager Professional Development, 10 January 2001: I'm very, very impressed with the book—congratulations to the authors, it’s topical, relevant, useful, real and will be a wonderful resource…

Media

Alison Parr, Newstalk, 3ZB, 28 October 2000: This is a superb book. I’ve read a lot of books on the subject and this is a very, very, good one.

Heidi Thomson, The Dominion, Books, 16 December 2000 : While most post-break-up manuals focus on initial recovery, this one looks forward without glossing over the pitfalls. And it manages to convey its message without bullet points or slogans. Required reading for all involved.

Paul Freedman, Sunday Star Times, Reviews, 4 February 2001: Those undergoing the grief of mid-life remodelling will find comfort, helpful advice and useful techniques here. It’s the sort of book you’ll keep near, underline the bits that speak to your need and dip into again. The sort of book you’ll pass on to a friend who needs it more. A treasure.

“J”, The Daily Post, 17 January 2001: Recycled People is an excellent
practical manual for re-entering the single scene.

Weekend Herald, 11-12 November, 2000: This is a great book: wise, friendly, comprehensive. Most people who have had a marriage or long term relationship break up and found themselves single again in their late
30s, 40s or 50s will feel that these two women have a special insight into their most personal hopes and fears, joys and sorrows.

City Voice, No 20, December 2000: A traveller’s guide to a foreign country, where those who have been there before can help to map out the pleasures and pitfalls of the journey.
