Following a unique format perfect for today's world, the renowned author of The Dance of Anger gives us just over 100 rules that cover all the hot spots in long-term relationships.

Marriage Rules offers new solutions to age-old problems ("He won't talk"/"She doesn't want sex") as well as modern ones (your partner's relationship to technology.) You'll also learn how to:

  • Calm things down and warm them up
  • Talk straight and fight fair
  • Listen well as a spiritual practice
  • Connect with a distant partner
  • Survive the unique challenges of children, stepchildren and difficult- laws
  • Follow a 12-step program to overcome defensiveness
  • Know how and when to draw the line
  • Take back your marriage when things fall apart

    Marriage Rules is a treasure chest of lively, practical advice to help you navigate your couple relationship with clarity, courage, and joyous conviction. If one person in a couple follows ten rules of his or her choice, it will generate a major, positive change. All that's required is a genuine wish for a better relationship and a willingness to practice.

        Harriet Lerner's latest couples guide is loaded with practical suggestions--106 of them--for solving common problems in lifelong partnerships. Many are variations on the themes of minding one's individual needs, being kind, and communicating constructively, especially when navigating the divide between close and distant emotional styles. You won't solve every issue, she says, but you can make progress in key areas over time with steady effort. The advice, demonstrated with compact dialogues, is both practical and sophisticated. Natalie Ross's performance deftly balances the nurturing aspect of the writing with the author's obvious authority. With one of the most genuine and appealing voices in audio, she makes this exceptional book sound smooth and inviting. T.W. (c) AudioFile 2011, Portland, Maine
