From the author's Introduction: "It is impossible to reduce the complexities of marital relations to a few simple statements. That said, I do believe the quest for connubial bliss requires two basic, seemingly simplistic, but profoundly important elements. In order to enjoy a long and satisfying marriage your first task is to find the right partner. Your second task is to be the right partner. It seems like common sense, but stay with me." Tragically, most marriages are unhappy and often end in divorce. Yet marriage remains our best option for raising children and has the potential to provide us with our most satisfying life experiences. The key lies in selecting the right partner and, of course, being the right partner. Through the guide of eleven questions you ask yourself, the book discloses the ingredients found in successful relationships and helps you learn who will, and who will not, make a good life companion for you.For over forty years, Donald Cadogan has worked as a clinical psychologist and marriage and family counselor in hospitals and group private practice, primarily in California.
