I Love You, Let's Work It Out

Drawing from his own personal experience and that of thousands of others, Dr. Viscott gives practical advice on identifying and resolving problems that can destroy a loving relationship.

This title is a worthwhile addition to the shelves crowded with self-help marriage books. The author, host of a talk radio show, varies the standard formula: simple explanations of emotions, case studies, and self-help exercises. His exercises, more complicated than the standard multiple choice forms, involve both partners (most only expect the reader to do the work) and often call for maintaining diaries over time to get an in-depth understanding of behaviors. The reader then learns how to use the positive behaviors to enhance the marriage. The work is based on a useful typology of behavior patterns that is sufficiently broad to help the reader identify his/her category and then apply the other materials most usefully. John M.
