I first heard about this book and it's author on the Oprah show. Immediately I was intrigued and went searching for my own copy of the book. As soon as I received the copy I bought online, I started reading and although somewhat skeptical regarding the theories presented by the author, I found this to be an excellent read. I believe I learned a lot about why we choose the intimate partners that we do and why ultimately "true love" almost always disintegrates into a power struggle between the two. The last section of the book even provides the exercises that the author uses in his therapy sessions with couples. Complete directions are given, including a timetable for when to complete them. Over all, I thought this book provided some excellent insight into the unconcious workings of the love relationship and is definitely worth reading if you'd like to work your way into a "concious" relationship!Read full review
My husband and I are trained and practice as Marriage and Family Therapists. When faced with our own marriage difficulties we struggled. At the brink of divorce I sought my own treatment. My therapist recommended the book. It helped tremendously. Gave me hope and tools to address long standing difficulties. My husband agreed to read it and "couldn't put it down". It validated our experiences both personally and professionally. We are now committed to working on the marriage and saving our children and ourselves the difficulties that come from divorce.
