As the authors point out, since the 1950s we have come to expect that by the time we graduate from college we will either in a commited relationship or ready for marriage.Today, how and when we meet our spouse is no longer a given. The authors make the case that school, family and church are no longer doing their former "social institution" job of straightforward matchmaking. (Sometimes I wonder if the societies still practicing "arranged marriages" end up with any more or less suffering to family life than "modern" Americans do!)The case histories from single men and women, anecdotes, "game plans," strategies, and ideas are thought-provoking and sometimes inspiring. Who knows? Any individual reader might find that one new "spark" that will change his or her life.
