Rating  - highly recommended
As far as I know, only the Gottmans' relationship recommendations are so solidly based on research. I've admired their work for over a decade and, above all others of its ilk, it is this book, with its proven techniques, that I highly recommend to clients with marriage problems.
Unfortunately, most people with relationship problems lack the motivation to follow these excellent suggestions. They are too invested in being right. Most people would rather be right than happy. Too bad.
For those people (which of course includes me, far more often than I would like), I recommend "To Love is to be Happy With" by Barry Neil Kaufman. Happiness is a choice, as Kaufman's wonderful little book spells out so clearly.
Rating  - Transform your relationship
The approach of this book is meaningful and candid, with a view toward fixing problems that married people are bound to experience at one time or another. Using his personal experience as well as patient examples, the author clearly states the problem and creatively supplies a solution. Other great book about this topic I Love You. Now What?: Falling in Love is a Mystery, Keeping It Isn't
Rating - fabu!
More great marriage advice from the Gottman researchers at the famous love labs. They did the research, now you get the results. This isn't just good "advice", it's what is proven to work and what is proven to not work. None of the other "relationship experts" have done the kind of research that the Gottman crew have done. Great stuff!
Rating  - Ten Lessons to Transform Your Marriage
Gottman bases his information on solid research and makes it very reader friendly. I think this is a good book for couples to read aloud together, using the concepts as a springboard for meaningful conversations. Fully five star.
