Summary: Great for married couples too!
Review: After being married for nine years, I thought I knew everything about my husband. However, after reading this book and taking the quiz myself I found out things about my husband that were very enlightening. The discussion surrounding some of these issues helped us grow closer and we now have a deeper and renewed understanding of one another. It's a great book for us married couples too!

Summary: Knowing Me Knowing You
Review: As a former Pastor and now the President of a global ministry, I was delighted to discover Knowing Me, Knowing You. This will be an invaluable resource for all of us who continue to do pre and post marital counselling. I will definitely recommend it to my peer group as a "must have".Carol and Malcom have identified the key areas of potential marital conflict and articulated a series of questions which will help any couple considering marriage uncover their differences and establish a positive atmosphere in which the couple can succeed. One of the glossed over phrases in the traditional marriage ceremony is "marriage is not to be entered into lightly, but thoughtfully." The frequency with which couples break their marriage vows shows clearly that the joy and delight of falling in love and planning a wedding pushed aside the need of discovering each other just as seriously. In today's self help and how to society, this delightful book will guide the couple through the discovery process. For those of us already married, it is also a way to keep discovering each other through the various stages of marriage and individual growth. My wife and I plan to go through the questions together on a regular basis. I also appreciated the caution of the authours in that just taking a quiz does not guarantee marital success. The last line of the conclusion sums it up best: "May the work you put into your marriage lead to a lifetime of love." Just taking a quiz does not guarantee marital success. It will, however, help you discover the "make or break issues" which must be resolved prior to marriage. Thank you, Carol and Malcom, for giving us a tool to help preserve one of the most valuable entities of any society, strong and healthy marriages. Mark D. Middleton

Summary: Great communication tool!
Review: This is a clear, easy to manage tool for getting communication going about issues that arise in a marriage. Many times at the beginning of a relationship, we unknowingly assume many outcomes to important matters and therefore don't discuss them. After 22 years of marriage, I can say that being aware of similarities and differences and discussing how to handle these differences will help maintain open, honest communication. This quiz is an effective, non-threatening way to begin a healthy marital relationship. Thank you for providing a resource to help us remember the importance of communication as well as providing a way to accomplish this.
