This book offer affirming news: One doesn't have to have a good mother to become one. Probing for answers from experts in psychiatry and psychoanalysis, social work, biology and other disciplines, it reveals that there are other paths to discovering the good mother within; it offers real life examples of women who have transcended the patterns set in their childhood to lead richly satisfying lives. This book shows how 'wounded daughters' can become 'healing mothers' and how they can give their own children a legacy of security, happiness, and love.
