Reviews

"Bill Eddy's latest book, Trump Bubbles, takes his high-conflict personality analysis into a sweeping look at political leaders and the high-risk effect of their personal patterns of behavior. At times frightening, insightful and hopeful, this book is a fascinating read about important issues. Narcissistic political leaders are highly attractive, but also can be very dangerous." --Joseph Burgo, PhD, clinical psychologist and author of The Narcissist You Know: Defending Yourself Against Extreme Narcissists in an All-About-Me Age "Bill Eddy comes through in the nick of time with this tremendous exploration of high-conflict personalities in politics. Whether you are an anxious voter, a citizen who's fed up with American politics, or someone who's tired of drama in leadership, this book is for you. Nobody understands the psychological dynamics of high-profile and high-conflict politicians, or how to deal with them, better than Eddy. Get this book now, read it, and apply what's inside. Trump Bubbles may be one of the most significant and needed books of the decade." --Nate Regier, PhD, CEO of Next Element Consulting and author of Beyond Drama: Transcending Energy Vampires and Conflict without Casualties: A Field Guide for Leading with Compassionate Accountability "Trump Bubbles offers a stimulating, insightful, and in-depth historic analysis of previous political and economic 'bubbles' that, predictably, have risen and fallen over the years, and carries us forward into the unsettling 2016 presidential election--with its worrisome 'Trump phenomenon.' Bill's well-documented explanation of this phenomenon is fascinating and informative, as he clearly illustrates the perils for our nation of having a high-conflict person in a major leadership position of power. Informed by his vast background in studying high-conflict people, Bill offers warnings along with reasonable recommendations for preventing these 'Trump Bubbles' from taking us in; for the sake of us all, we need to heed his warnings and take his recommended actions to heart!" --Donald T. Saposnek, PhD, author of Mediating Child Custody Disputes: A Strategic Approach and co-author of Splitting America: How Politicians, Super PACs and the News Media Mirror High Conflict Divorce "What's so fascinating is the historical context Eddy provides to shed light on the Trump bubble. From the rise and fall of Nazi Germany, to McCarthyism, to the Vietnam War and the Iraq War, Eddy points out how political leadership by narcissistic personalities is nothing new in our society. What's new, Eddy demonstrates, are the fairly recent cultural, economic, and social changes, including American media practices, that have created the perfect storm culminating in the dangerous state of American politics in 2016. We, as a country, are at a political crossroads, with even more at stake than we first believed. Eddy offers concrete recommendations on how each of us can respond to 'Trump bubbles' now and in the future. This book should be required reading before voting for any candidate." --Alison L. Patton, Esq., attorney, mediator, and contributing writer to Huffington Post and lemonadedivorce.com "No matter where you stand on the politic spectrum, you have a responsibility to read this book. Bill Eddy brings the reality of our world into focus through the lenses of history, psychology, and politics. He gives us all a way to make sense of the high-conflict culture in which we live and offers the long-overdue gift of sound, down-to-earth advice about how to maintain our sanity, if not our civilization. If only Trump Bubbles had been in print seventy or eighty years ago, humanity would today be in a far healthier place." --Benjamin D. Garber, PhD, author of Holding Tight/Letting Go, Developmental Psychology for Family Law Professionals, and Keeping Kids Out of the Middle
