'An eminently pratical guide to an emotionally intelligent - and long-lasting - marriage'
Daniel Goleman, Author of Emotional Intelligence

Scientifically analysing the habits of married couples, psychologist John Gottman has established a method of correcting the behaviour that sends thousands of marriages on to the rocks. The seven principles for making marriage work have been tried and tested on real couples with real problems:

• Create love maps that will help you find a new respect and affection for your partner
• Nurture your 'fondness and admiration' to remind yourself why you fell in love
• Turn towards each other when you have problems rather than running away...

'If the Clintons could have been given this book as a wedding present, things might have been different. In essence, it is a practical, accessible and effective guide to achieving a harmonious and long-lasting relationship'
