About the Authors Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish:The first collaboration of Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish resulted in Liberated Parents/Liberated Children, a book that describes their experiences in ten years of parent-guidance groups with the late child psychologist, Dr. Haim Ginott. Selected by the Book-of-the-Month Club, their book also won the Christopher Award for "literary achievement affirming the highest values of the human spirit." Since its publication, both women have traveled across the country presenting their humorous and inspiring lectures and workshops to parents, teachers, and mental health professionals. The work they subsequently did with nursery schools, teenagers and parents was documented for TV in a series shown on CBS. Out of all these experiences came their second and third books--the internationally acclaimed How To Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk (almost two million copies sold) and Siblings Without Rivalry (#1 on The New York Times Best Seller List). These were followed by the group workshop programs that gave parents the opportunity to practice the communications skills in each book. Their most recent collaboration has produced a number of new works: * A photographic book with poetic text entitled Between Brothers & Sisters: A Celebration of Life's Most Enduring Relationship.
