Inside the Minds of Angry and Controlling Men

Why Does He Do That?

Informative, easy to read book. Intense but very important.

Charlie Winchester 

I learned so much about the mindset of abusers, the dynamics of an abusive relationship, and how to support someone in an abusive situation from this book. I survived an abusive relationship over 10 years ago and I’m just now able to reflect on it and sit with it. I thank this book for giving me the opportunity to see that abuse for what it was. I highly recommend this to anyone, regardless of whether you've experienced or know someone who's experienced an abusive relationship — abuse is more prevalent than you think and it takes some cultural deprogramming not just to recognize it, but to stop excusing it.

Eye opening, validating, educative. Must read whether you’re in a healthy relationship or not
