Attachments

Why You Love, Feel, and Act the Way You Do

De: Dr. Tim Clinton, Dr. Gary Sibcy

Narrado por: Christopher Solimene

The answer to why people feel and act the way they do lies in the profound effect of a child's bonding process with his or her parents. How successfully we form and maintain relationships throughout life is related to those early issues of "attachment". The author has cited four primary bonding styles that explain why people love, feel, and act the way they do.

This book is for anyone who desires closeness, especially in the most intimate relationships: marriage, parenting, close friends, and ultimately God.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Offer[s] useful insights....it reminds us of the need to make one's relationship with God one of utter dependence." (Christian Counseling & Educational Foundation)

Performance

The narrator was horrible and difficult to endure. Halting and elementary speech. The book was fascinating. I wish the narrator would just talk conversationally. Instead his performance was an F. Ruined it.

Best book ever

This is one of the best books I’ve ever read I hope to read many more books by Dr. Tim Clinton.

Great Information but Not Great Narration

I thought it was read by a robot. But the book itself is very informative. I loved how it was biblically based and tied scripture into attachment.

Good stuff

Good stuff; helpful; examples are simplistic; narration sounds computer generated; I am informed but I don’t really know what to do with it.

This Should Be Heard Once A Year Minimum

Just like I stated in the title, please add this to your yearly listen list. The educational content is spot on, and as I or we grow in life, I feel this book will expose even more learning enlightenment. Thanks for this material.

extremely robotic narrator

I really wanted to listen to this book. But I discontinued it after a chapter or two because the extremely robotic voice of the narrator was very distracting from any kind of content assimilation. that's a shame... having read the book it really is pretty good but this narrator makes it impossible to listen to.

Awesome book; terrible narrator

The content of this book is invaluable and I highly recommend it. Buy the book and read it; stay away from the audio version.

Deep n True

this book really examined behaviors that from where we are now to the link when you were younger

Listen at a faster speed

The book was good and informative, but I found the narrator very hard to follow. He was very clearly spoken but robotic and words were too spaced apart. A faster speed helps but it was still difficult to listen to. Good insightful book though.

Buy the Book... Skip Audio Version

This book provides a nice summary of attachment theory from Christian therapists' experience and perspective. Examples of the Ambivalent, Avoidant, Disorganized, and Secure attachment styles as well as case studies are abundant and allow one to self-identify one's personal style. The theory is presented within a spiritual framework with scripture to help readers integrate faith-based precepts with concepts historically presented only from a secular perspective. The authors conclude with practices and spiritual disciplines for those actively pursuing a Christ-led life to counter-balance attachment style based challenges. That being said, the presenter's style of the audio version is distracting with emotional inflections tightly limited within each word, annunciations so precisely delivered, and diction paced such that it often sounds automated rather than read by a person. To overcome the tedious pace, consider turning up the speed (1.5 speed made it less obvious).
