Publisher's Synopsis
With a fresh and unique perspective, the authors of this powerful guide combine 25 years of university–based research with couples–counseling experience. They outline their highly acclaimed PREP–TM (Prevention and Relationship Enhancement Program) approach for helping couples beat the odds and master the skills that can prevent marital distress and divorce. They reveal, for example, research that highlights the major difference between men and women in relationships—the way they fight—and how shared commitment is essential for fair fighting between partners.
