Excellent... a good study book.. deserves a wider readership
"An excellent guidebook that will lead you to the principles of a balanced life. Balanced. The word speaks of equity, justice, wisdom in action, mental poise, stability. A quality so yearned for yet hard to find. Marilee Horton and Walter Byrd, M.D., show how balance can be found in all areas of a woman's life-her body, her soul, and her spirit."
The Christian Bookshelf
"A guide toward a balanced life-spiritually and physically-in order to better serve God. Especially for women, there are sections that deal with personal appearance including hair styles, clothing, keeping in shape, and nutrition. This would make a good study book for women's groups."
The Christian Bookseller
"This volume is sub-titled 'A Woman's Guide to Physical, Emotional, and Spiritual Well-Being.' That rather broad agenda is fulfilled admirably. But Keeping Your Balance deserves a wider readership than just women. Many of the topics covered are equally applicable to men, or can at least significantly help men better understand their wives and other women.... The authors are well-qualified to write such a volume. After a suicide attempt in 1975, Horton has seen her life put together and has written two previous books, as well as carrying on a popular conference ministry. Byrd, a Christian psychiatrist, is on the staff of the Minirth-Meler Clinic in Dallas and has served as a visiting lecturer in counseling at Liberty Baptist College and Dallas Seminary and other ministry capacities."
