I know that books are not substitutes for
people. However, I remembered the many
times when a particular book read at a time when I was in a receiving mood, opened up new possibilities which resulted in my taking new directions for myself.
If I wrote this book simply and directly, it might have similar results for others.
This is what I have done. The framework of this book is the BARE BONES of the possible, which I believe applies to all human beings.
You, the reader, can flesh out the framework to fi t you.
—Virginia Satir
