Testimonials
"No single person should be without Linder's fascinating insights about what really goes on between people when they 'date.' Relational is not only easy to read, it is compelling and original. Linder discusses all the things we need to know but were never taught. His examples are so real and familiar; he speaks to the very core of the issues single men and women deal with today. If you are looking for true intimacy, don't pass up this book!"

"I'm done with your book. I'd like to order 10 copies, please! :)
I can't put how I feel after reading it into words...... It's reassuring, wise, practical, caring, open-minded, straight forward; something you perhaps knew, but reading it made you think about..... I am very impressed and feel more enlightened after reading it. It makes me think about my past relationships and makes me want to think back and analyze them to see why/what occurred and how to be careful and avoid making mistakes!"

"Linder convinces us to believe that applying these basic principles could empower the recovering addict to transform the quality of his or her relationships. We may draw inspiration from his 'dare to apply' these basic principles for ourselves and see whether they work and whether they're true. These are principles that would behoove all of us to at least consider.
For the treatment practitioner, Relational Recovery is essential psycho-education material. Linder packs a huge amount of 'back to basics' information into a little space."

"Daniel Linder's book Intimacy; The Essence of True Love is a blueprint for the recovering addict to understand how to begin to rebuild healthy relationships as the next step in the recovery process. This is a must read for anyone in recovery who wants to have a fulfilling and meaningful intimate relationship over time.
Linder provides many examples of relationship streets the recovering addict may go down where a hole exists and how not to fall in. He also provides examples of alternative relationship streets where the addict will find respect and acceptance, trust and a deep understanding."

"Intimacy, The Essence of True Love is a fresh, insightful guide for developing a rich emotional closeness during every step of an ever-evolving relationship. Daniel Linder's perspective is one that honors the creative process of relationships with vision, purpose and honesty as its heart. He identifies common destructive patterns and offers thought-provoking ideas for avoiding these pitfalls so that a relationship has a chance to develop and thrive. I recommend this book to anyone who recognizes that the way they have been approaching relationships hasn't lead to the true love they yearn to create."
