Synopsis

Everyone brings differing expectations and a variable capacity for compromising to the marital relationship. These personality characteristics play a large role in determining how satisfying the relationship will be perceived as being.By studying the marriages of ten famous couples-including Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt, The Duke and Duchess of Windsor, and Robert and Elizabeth Barrett Browning-Dr. Jerry M. Lewis examines what they can teach us about what works and what doesn't work in constructing this life-altering relationship.Dr. Lewis relies on over thirty years of research on marital-family systems. His studies focus on the important differences between those relationships that promote growth, heal early wounds, or are destructive to all concerned.Marriages are for better or worse. They encourage the individual psychological maturity of husbands and wives as well as their children. But when it's severely dysfunctional, it may contribute to the development of psychiatric disorders. Marriage and other long-term committed relationships also decisively influence life satisfaction, physical health, and the establishment of life's meaning.Learn from the mistakes and triumphs of famous marriages to make your own marriage stronger and healthier!
