Customer Reviews

Great Book for Couples

I am a PREP instructor and use this book in my classes. I find that my couples enjoy the book and find it easy to understand. It is in simple english and has exercises for couples to complete to have an opportunity to practice what they have learned. I recommend the book for couples that are struggling in their relationship and for those who want to make it even stronger.

Great Information

I was asked to teach a class at church on marriage so I needed a couple of books to research. This was my most useful tool. The information is relevant to modern day marriages and offers practical solutions to potential problems. If you can only purchase one book to help improve your relationship, this book is my recommendation.

Excellent book!

For anyone wishing to enhance their marriage experience, this is the book for you. Very well written with no psychobable to confuse and confound the reader. I highly recommend it.

Great Book Especially for Men

My wife and I have enjoyed this book so much we have bought dozens of copies and provide them for couples with whom we counsel in the Marriage and Family Institute of Tulsa. It is well researced and has great illustrations. It's condensed, but powerful approach to the marriage relationship is something that men seem to enjoy. Where we've had trouble getting men to read other books, they seem to benefit by this one. Easy to read. Well researched, good illustrations. Best thing I liked was the help for speakers and listeners. Terry Bell (Author of "The Love Ethic")The Love Ethic
