Summary: Financial scams minute compared to treatment of seniors
Review: Having already identified the victims from the schoolyard to the nursing home, the financial scams of vulnerable victims are nothing compared to the potential of emotional and physical abuse that is possible and predictable in America's forseeable future. Much like the abuse in Iraq that has come to light, many refuse to acknowledge the harm that abuse may cause and the extent of its lasting effects. Destined to be one of the most prominent features of America's human relations wars, at home and abroad, the aging of America and the opportunity to perform the ostracism and exclusionary bias embedded in its long cultural history is undeniable if not checked before it begins, or if begun, before it takes on the enormous human toll that can, and may be, the avalanche of despair that may take hold due to the distortion of demographics that has influenced it since WWII. A wise world will take heed and plan for these problems as preventative measures much like preparing for the coming storm that may well be blind and deaf to protest when it hits.

Summary: Hope for the Trapped
Review: I have been following Tim Field's work closely since 1998 - visiting his ever-evolving Web site weekly. I read "Bully in Sight" from cover to cover twice. It provided me with invaluable and indispensable help in coping with stalkers and bullies. I have dedicated the last 5 years to the study of the Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD). Most narcissists are bullies. Few have captured the essence of bullying and stalking as Tim has. His work has given hope to many - the trapped and desperate victims of bullying, harassment and stalking. His book and Web site should be the first stop on the road to recovery and healing. Sam Vaknin, author of "Malignant Self Love - Narcissism Revisited".

Summary: This book has been a true lifesaver
Review: This book has been a true lifesaver for many people targeted by workplace bullying/harassment. Mr Field's insight provides understanding and validation for the targets, analysis and exposure of bullies' underhand tactics and ploys, and valuable advice for those having to defend their safety, sanity and dignity from workplace bullies, as well as for those in a position to assist them.

Summary: A standard reference in our ministry
Review: Tim Field's book is a standard reference volume that we use and highly recommend in our ministry with individuals who find themselves trapped and psychologically abused in toxic, dysfunctional systems (workplaces, volunteer organizations, families, etc.). Dr. Field has done a remarkable service to society in producing this book. We are fully grateful.
