Читать книгу A Man's Way through Relationships - Dan Griffin - Страница 9

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

Very special thanks to Rick Dauer, with whom I have shared much of this journey the past four years, who has taught me a lot and helped me expound on a lot of these concepts, and whose support in writing and editing this book has been invaluable. Thank you, Rick.

Thank you to Stephanie Covington for helping to open the doors for this message.

Special thanks to my good friend, colleague, and mentor, Dr. Allen Berger, for taking the time to read through my drafts and offer me invaluable feedback.

Thank you to all my family: the Griffins, the Dietls, and the Robsons. Love and thanks to my mom, Sherry Griffin, for everything. All of my love and gratitude to Nancy and Grace for helping me every day to become a better man, a better husband, and a better father.

Many thanks to Central Recovery Press for having the courage to declare the importance of this topic by publishing A Man’s Way through Relationships, for having faith in me, and for not kowtowing to the old belief that men don’t buy books about relationships! Thanks also to Hazelden for publishing my first book, A Man’s Way through the Twelve Steps. I have absolutely no evidence from the work I have been doing nationally and internationally that this work does not resonate with men. That is what it is going to take to effect the change that so many men truly desire to have in their lives.

Thanks to Dan Mager for making the editing process, which can be as painful as the writing, a wonderful example of how men can collaborate and work through conflict.

Finally, very special and heartfelt thanks to all the men who shared themselves and their truths with me to help me create this book: for your time, your vulnerability, your trust, and the incredible work you have done to become the men you are in this world. I hope your act of service will make a difference in the lives of men for years to come.
