But what about those women who grew up \"undermothered\"--whose own mothers were well-meaning but unavailable, absent, distracted, or depressed? How are they to become the good mothers they aspire to be?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this beautifully articulate book, Kathryn Black, whose own mother's early death inspired her award-winning \u003cb\u003eIn the Shadow of Polio\u003c\/b\u003e, offers affirming news: One doesn't have to have had a good mother to become one. Probing for answers from experts in psychiatry and psychoanalysis, social work, biology, and other disciplines, Black reveals that there are other paths to discovering the good mother within. This moving and powerful book shows how \"wounded daughters\" can become \"healing mothers\" who give their own children a legacy of security, happiness, and love.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn the web: http: \/\/www.motheringwithoutamap.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eKathryn Black, a journalist for twenty years, is the author of \u003cb\u003eIn the Shadow of Polio\u003c\/b\u003e, named by the \u003cb\u003eBoston Globe\u003c\/b\u003e as one of the ten best 1996 nonfiction works, winner of the Colorado Book Award for literary nonfiction, the June Roth Book Award for Health and Medical Writing, and a \u003cb\u003eDenver Post\u003c\/b\u003e bestseller.
