{"product_id":"9781581127393","title":"The Pattern Of The Double-Bind In Mormonism","description":" How does one summarize a convoluted Pattern that defies common sense?  Perhaps, that says it.  The Pattern of The Double-Bind\u003cp\u003eis a convoluted, insidious stratagem that turns our mental and emotional common sense world upside down.  It is a circular\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e pattern that ends in a vortex of depression and possible suicide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e This book is the culmination of a twenty-year odyssey, a personal quest for a solution to an unknown problem that had become\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e emotionally and intellectually intolerable for the author.  What she found through trial and error, following threads and\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e connections, was a pattern of behavior that she finally identified and named The Pattern of The Double-Bind.  She first\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e discovered it in her Mormon marriage, and then in Mormonism itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Part I describes The Nature of The Pattern and The Double-Bind; it defines and gives examples of what The Pattern is, how it\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e is used in different stages - and what results are incurred in each stage.  Parts II and III present personal experiences of\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e The Pattern in the lives of former members of the Mormon church.  The last section, Part IV, gives a Summary of The Pattern\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e and its antidote ... in How to Free Oneself from The Pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Universal-Publishers.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47040930578672,"sku":"9781581127393","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781581127393_p0.jpg?v=1763779323","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781581127393","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
