Acts of trust

Explores the different aspects of risk, trust and betrayal in our relationships, whether between friends, lovers, partners, parents and children, or people and animals. With the help of examples from contemporary film, television, literature and psychology, the author tells the stories of a number of exceptional people who have engaged in extraordinary acts of trust. They include the story of the Native American woman who lives and works with wolves at her wolf sanctuary; the circus couple who need absolute trust in each other to perform their ‘William Tell’ act; the best-selling author Susan Winter, who has studied relationships between older women and younger men; the actor Michael Hurst (Iolaus in the television series Hercules); and the story of horse-whisperer Franklin Levinson.
