Using current research and his own work with couples, Dr. Hargrave challenged me to examine how I look at marriage and the marriages that come to my office. He offers a place to begin with damaged relationships and points to a direction to lead them. I found his examples and exercises useful in shaping my own beliefs about struggling marriages and useful as tools for those couples. I would recommend this work to beginning students of marital therapy, as well as experienced therapists reviewing their beliefs about how relationship integrity can be restored.

This book is very helpful for those wanting to improve their marriage & also for those learning to be marraige counsellors.

This book is a fantastic read and a must recommend for many couples I see as a professional counselor. The only part about this book that was not my favorite was the repetitiveness toward the last third of it. Sometimes I feel like many self help authors tend to fall into this trap. However, this book truly encapsulates a concept that every therapist can get on board with.
