The choice in intervention : applying the choice to behavior intervention efforts.
(Book)

The book is spiral bound for ease of use as a manual.

"Applies the self-deception solution to behavior intervention efforts, whether those efforts are at home, at a formal treatment program, or within the informal context of a relationship between friends or associates. The Choice in Intervention shows how the common conceptions of violence and nonviolence are lacking and redefines both in a fundamental and compelling way. It shows how violence is not merely a behavior but a "way of being" and how most violence is perpetrated not by hands but by hearts. Even well meaning interveners often carry attitudes that invite the very problems they are trying to solve. The Choice in Intervention reveals four principles that must guide any intervention effort in order to maximize helpfulness and minimize violence both by interveners and intervenees"--Publisher's Web site.
