Synopsis

What happens to a couple's relationship when baby makes three? Why do some relationships improve and others falter? Based on a ten-year study of 100 pairs of first-time parents, this book charts the tumultuous changes that greet the arrival of a first child, one of the most common, but least understood of life's passages. Drawing on the stories of a wide variety of men and women, the authors reveal common pitfalls, and offer councel about early parenthood.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

When it first appeared in 1992, this book became an instant must-read on the lists of new parents and family studies professionals alike. Its message is just as relevant, just as timely, and perhaps even more important today. As indicated in the new foreword, by John M. Gottman, and in the updates and new afterword provided by the authors, the transition to parenthood remains one of the most challenging periods in adulthood. Readers today will be rewarded, just as earlier readers have been, by the stories reported in the pages of this book and by the wise counsel of the authors who put those stories in context.
