TO HAVE AND TO HURT 

Recognizing, Changing, or Escaping Abuse In Marriage

This innovative book takes a fresh and very close up look at intimate partner abuse and violence, which often takes place behind closed doors, inside marriages and other "loving" relationships. This abuse can be physical, emotional, financial, and or even some combination of all these -- which it often is even when not seen by others or the members of the relationship as being such. Browne-Miller uses her own carefully crafted vignettes, standing and emerging research, as well as her own unique and cutting edge psychodynamic approach to interpersonal behavior, addictive relationship patterns, and treatments of these problems -- to help us recognize the difference between a relationship being affected by normal stressors, (which also can benefit by this very close look at partner interaction), and one that is, while frequently invisible not only to onlookers but to the parties involved, emotionally, financially, and or physically abusive, perhaps even deadly. We are all in need of better understanding what we are doing in intimate partner relationships, even in the most successful ones, and in understanding how this impacts the world around us, including our children. There is no lay or professional reader who will come away unaffected. There is no denial of any form of abuse -- or of anyone's own role in any form of abuse -- that can come away unbroken.
