"WAREHAM'S 231 PAGE BOOK IS A WINNER. A 'what if' novel wrapped in layers of reality that offers an unnerving case study or alcoholism in the White House. We enter a series of psychological and forensic intelligence forays engendered by the U.S. Secret Service, along with a certain Doctor Mark Alter, leadership psychologist and wizard at "coaching" damaged CEO's into restoring their acumen and performance. In this case, however, the patient is none other than President George W. Bush."

"Unique. Highly recommended and sure to please... told from the perspective of the president's psychologist, this is a story with a unique twist and perspective."

"Profound, universal insights within fine literature, The President's Therapist will be remembered long after our 43rd Commander in Chief has been forgotten."

"An astonishing original work that pushes the novelistic envelope within a highly literate framework. It will change the reader, just as surely as at least four thousand American warriors and countless innocent Iraqi citizens might still be alive if only Dr. Mark Alter had gotten to our our-of-his-depth and out-of-control President George W. Bush a little sooner."
