Good practical advice

Ever notice how differently men and women see relationships and how they handle stress? Those differences can affect the way we solve problems that arise. Dr. Hawkins uses stories about people he's worked with to help identify potential trouble spots. He offers realistic solutions to keep our personal relationships working smoothly. Sometimes we're too close to the problem to see clearly what needs to be done. Also, it's a lot easier to see what someone else is doing wrong than it is to admit our own failings. Dr. Hawkins has more than thirty years counseling experience and has worked with thousand of couples. In this book he sets out effective ways to avoid problems that can damage our relationships with the people we love.
