A major revision of the classic divorce prevention book, with up-to-date research and inclusive content
Fighting for Your Marriage is based on the widely acclaimed PREP approach (Prevention and Relationship Education Program). Research has found that couples who use these strategies can handle conflict more constructively, protect their happiness, and reduce the odds of breaking up. Based on more than 40 years of evidence, this book shows couples how to talk more and fight less, protect their friendship, and keep the fun alive. You'll learn what it takes to have a more intimate, sensual relationship and how to clarify and act on priorities.
The 4th Edition has been substantially updated with advice for couples from a wide range of backgrounds and types who are interested in lasting love. The authors have included a wealth of techniques and down-to-earth guidance for all couples who seek to promote greater connection and pleasure in their long-term relationships.
After reading the 4th edition, you will be able to:
- Apply up-to-date, research-backed strategies, using the renowned PREP approach to deepen your relationships
- Rekindle your marriage and bridge the emotional distance that has grown between you and your spouse
- Repair your or your partner's lack of desire for sensual and sexual connections
- Get research-based advice for enhancing and strengthening relationships for people who are interested in lasting love
For decades, this book has helped couples in serious relationships, newly married couples, and long-term married couples. It is also a valuable resource for couples and family therapists, college professors, clergy, and other professionals working with diverse individuals and couples who want to have happy, healthy relationships.
