An interesting summary of Bowen Family Theory, which tries to conceptualize how individuals act in the context of other people in their lives, particularly their family of origin. None are immune from these influences and I liked being forced to think about these multiple personal interactions, particularly triangulation. We are given guidelines on the healthiest way to live emotionally, with a high degree of self-determination. It was a dense read that required a lot of concentration, but I feel it was worth the slog to gain this new perspective on relationships.
