Geoffery Greif's Out of Touch is a powerful book that captures the complexity of a common and many-sided domestic drama. Greif manages to evoke empathy for all involved, mothers, fathers and children, while effectively illustrating the different issues each confronts. The narratives are vivid enough to detail the many twists and turns that lead one parent to 'lose touch,' and Greif's analysis is rich enough to stand alone. Together, complemented by insightful policy recommendations, they make for a book that anyone who has personal or professional interest in what happens to families after divorce will want to read. --Theodore Cohen, Ohio Wesleyan University In Out of Touch, Dr. Greif continues as the harbinger for single parents.... I found the concrete self-help actions based on 180 responses and the interviews conducted to be most helpful both as a social worker and a single parent. He also astutely provides children caught between parents with 10 helpful suggestions of how they might get back in touch with their parents or at least themselves. --Susan C.
