Customer Reviews

useful for anyone

I read this book years ago and have referred to it many times. This book shows how the family we grew up in affects the marriage we have now. It also gives information on real case study couples and how they worked out their differences. I have given this book to others who found it tremendously helpful and it would probably be a great wedding present!

The double therapy

This book gives information about the usal problems a couple faces. I found that the problems with my wife had to do with me not her. This is a uniqe experience.
