THE FUTURE OF THE FAMILY

This popular monk-turned-lecturer has released this new tape to follow his successful PBS television series. Before a live audience, the author discusses topics of recovery, such as family-of-origin issues and recovering one's inner child. In a delightful Southern twang Bradshaw peppers this sometimes somber topic with satirical humor. He also discusses spiritual topics (occasionally becoming preachy). The only thing that detracts from this lively performance is the abrupt endings of the tapes, which call for smooth transitions from topic to topic.
