I found this even better than the first book - it could stand alone as it has the essential info about EI parents and other EI people, although anyone who is really struggling with these relationships will want both books. I thought the advice was very clear and practical. Time will tell whether it works in my interactions with EI people, but I'm looking forward to trying. I especially appreciated the detailed explanation of how EI people are hostile to your inner world, and how to reclaim it. It's been hard for me to feel I have permission just to have my own thoughts around EI people, but now I understand why, I know it's important to resist the takeover, and I will go into our encounters forearmed.
