This engaging, no-nonsense book by father–daughter relationships expert, Dr. Linda Nielsen, offers a step-by-step guide for fathers and daughters to build a more comfortable and meaningful relationship and resolve issues still hanging over them from the past.

The book explores problems arising from conflicts over money, the daughter’s lifestyle and choices in her romantic relationships, her parents’ divorce, tense situations during her college years, and her father’s aging and death. With entertaining, eye-opening quizzes, she introduces research that makes readers re-examine their own beliefs and biases that limit or complicate their father–daughter relationship. Improving Father–Daughter Relationships: A Guide for Women and Their Dads is essential reading and a powerful resource for adult daughters and their fathers, as well as for their families and therapists.
