Description
"If only he could see things from my point of view."
"Why does she have to act that way?"
No matter how much two people love each other, their differences will
eventually cause conflict. This popular, science-based guide offers
powerful solutions for couples frustrated by continual attempts to make
each other change. True acceptance of one another may seem difficult to
accomplish, but the clear-cut steps in this book can make it a reality.
Aided by thought-provoking exercises and vivid stories, readers learn
why they keep having the same fights again and again; how to keep small
incompatibilities from causing big problems; what communication
strategies really work to resolve conflicts; and how to problem-solve
and make positive changes—together. Updated throughout with new
research, practical tools, and examples, the second edition features a
new chapter on mindfulness.

Advance Praise
"It
is often so difficult for quarreling couples to find a way through the
thicket of blame, accusation, and resentment that ensnares them, but
this splendid book illuminates some pathways out. The first edition was
terrific, but this revision goes beyond it, bringing in new research,
fresh ideas, and, as usual, practical solutions. All couples who find
themselves enduring repeated conflicts--which is to say, nearly all
couples--will benefit from this fine book."--Carol Tavris, PhD,
coauthor of Mistakes Were Made (But Not by Me)
"When
partners fight, they often push each other to change. But seeing
conflicts from the other's perspective helps move the couple away from
anger and blame. This invaluable book provides concrete strategies to do
just that. With a deeper understanding of your partner's emotional
vulnerabilities, you can build trust and intimacy, and maybe even bring
about the changes that matter most to you."--Janis Abrahms Spring, PhD, author of After the Affair
"No matter how many books you have read to improve your relationship,
read this one, and follow the research-based principles it presents! The
authors are internationally known scientists who have produced a book
that all couples need to read. It's not the differences between you and
your partner that matter, but how you handle them, and this book shows
exactly how and why."--Howard J. Markman, PhD, coauthor of Fighting for Your Marriage
