review 1: I've both read and written enough on this topic to discover few new things on any book about polyamory and non-monogamy. Still, I found this to be a good survey on relatively current issues on non-monogamy. I certainly don't agree with all of Dr. Anapol's assertions or opinions, but I don't expect that to be the case for any book I read on the topic. Compared to the other "bibles" on open relationships--The Ethical Slut and Opening Up--I found this one to be an equally balanced and more interesting read. I found the discussion on issues surrounding jealousy to be very well written, although the final couple chapters felt a bit more touch-feely than I really needed. All in all, it's definitely worth a read for anyone interested in polyamory.
review 2: While I fe... moreel like I've grown some by reading this book, I also feel like it could have been written in a more engaging manner. For those looking for a more clinical view of polyamory spiced with some personal experiences and the history of the relationship models, this book is a good one. I prefer a book that does more than present the data to me. Overall, the information was presented well and I greatly appreciate it, I just didn't really enjoy reading it. less
