Rating: 5 stars
Summary: excellent book, challenging and thought provoking
Review: I loved this book. Two books by Mark Waldman include Hendrix's work and are also great: THE ART OF STAYING TOGETHER, and LOVE GAMES (I got to see a prepublication proof - it won't be in the bookstores till January 2000).

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This REALLY Works
Review: If you and your partner have the patience to work through this together, it will enhance your understanding of your own motives as well as your partners. My partner and I are about 1/2 way through and I can honestly say that the improvement in our relationship has been so substantial that I went from depressed/hopeless/thinking of leaving to committed to making it work--together.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This can be a real marriage-saver!
Review: If you're committed to taking the time each day to do the exercises in this book, you can make significant improvements in your marriage or relationship. My spouse and I found it to be a useful adjunct to therapy, and we are closer now than ever before, and we understand each other much better. Sometimes the exercises seem a little hokey, but if you trust the authors that they do have a reason behind what they're asking of you, you'll find that the little doses of daily insight, plus just spending time together each day, can work wonders! As a clinical psychologist, I was impressed both personally and professionally. It's good for any type of committed couple, straight or gay, too, which is nice.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Mostly speculation
Review: Read Dr. Phil McGraw's Relationship Rescue. MUCH better.

I know there are many Harville fans out there, but if you've already spent years in therapy, you've "gotten over" your rotten childhood. Harville's books promote victimization and entitlement.
