Book Description
In this book Dr. Dreikurs deals with the psychological and social factors that are responsible for our present-day confusion in resolving the problems of sex and love in marriage. The understanding of the influence of these two basic factors will help the individual in his efforts to solve such common problems as choosing a mate, getting along together, finding sexual happiness, dealing with infidelity and jealousy, and the rearing of children. The book is not moralistic but, rather, analytical and explanatory. Nevertheless, it places the strongest emphasis on the responsibility of each individual who, through personal attitudes, not only determines his own marital happiness but also influences the development of the group in which he lives.
